- Plot- or character-driven? A mix

- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
4.5
The first half of the book? Immaculate, stunning, heart breaking, beautifully written.
The second half? a little slower and harder to push through. Most of it is building characters while the first half is plot. I found it a bit hard to read at times.
All in all? Khaled Hosseini could write a grocery list and I would eat it up.
