![Nate Powell: Swallow Me Whole (2008, Diamond Comic Distributors, Top Shelf, Diamond [distributor])](https://wyrmfiles.us-east-1.linodeobjects.com/images/covers/2e080f7e-d76a-4623-80f4-f4c385fb94db.jpeg)
I felt like Oskar's discourse got cheesy or contrite at some points but regardless its worthwhile fiction read. I give it 4 starts because i didn't fully finish it and it took me a long time to read. I didn't necessarily find it "edge-of-my-seat-captivating-can't-put-it-down" style for me but i could see someone with a better attention span/ calmer than me to love this book.
