challenging dark mysterious tense medium-paced

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

3.5

The beginning is a little slow and some of the conversations feel pointless but it picks up around 70-80 pages in and then it’s pretty good!

It's like a coming-of-age story for both young and old.
The writing style and language was a bit hard to follow at first, but the story flows well once you get the hang of it.
