• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? N/A
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.5

Obviously kind of difficult to truly rate a book containing a person’s entire body of work but I had a mostly middling experience overall so that’s what it gets.

Basically a lot of beautiful, moody writing interjected with some very intense moments of hideous racism.
