  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.5

I'm not really sure what the plot is but the vibes are off the charts good. Dont recommend reading this alone or at night, especially if demons freak you out. 

I'm not really a fantasy type of gal but this was such a nice blend of fantasy and literary fiction that I enjoyed it. Definitely going to read the rest of the series. 

Also if you can get this version of audiobook the narrator really sells the story.
