  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

4.0

While the book is slow paced, I think the writing allows the reader to understand more of the main character’s inner thoughts. The book provides an interesting and sobering look at how certain ideologies can progress and cause complete societal collapse.
