dark emotional tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated

• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Fast paced (with some lulls), themes of feminine power, women’s relationships, mothers (absent, adopted, spiritual), and street/politics. Vivid descriptions and complicated main characters, sometimes the side characters were little more than props but an engaging read!
