Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I really liked aspects of this book, the overall atmosphere and vibe had a unique tone and the concept felt really promising as most of the book unfolded but as it went on I didn’t have a super strong connection to any characters and the plot didn’t keep the pace enough for me to feel very invested. 

Interesting premise, I had a difficult time connecting and caring for the characters.

DID NOT FINISH: 16%

The book didn't grab me. The plot is complex and the world it exists in is complex, but it wasn't interesting enough to keep going.
