Review of 'Veins' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
The book is deceptive. You think you're getting light-hearted episodic bursts of silliness, but then the dark humor gets darker before you can penetrate the choppy, steamroller narrative voice to realize it, and by the time you get to the end, you've come back around to the beginning in a way that casts new light on the whole thing and makes you feel bad for having laughed at the funny parts, because suddenly it's not really that funny.
