4.5

I liked how the inner life of each character was treated, and I liked the arch for Thomas. I only wish that Milo was also made to confront and change more of his own stuff. He did get better at explaining when/why he was upset, which was a positive change from the beginning where he just sort of mentally shrugged and was like oh well sometimes I just have outbursts when im angry. But I would have liked some more explicit narrative around that.
