challenging dark emotional reflective sad tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

Trigger warning for pretty much everything you can think of- I don't think I would've read it if I'd known quite what I was getting into. Expertly written and very original approach to material we've seen before in different ways. That poor house broke my heart.
