adventurous dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

the book was slow moving at first, but it all came together. I love the very vivid, specific descriptions of everything. The story did not go where I expected it to, but it pulled me right in. The writing was beautiful, especially the intimate moments between the two boys. I loved this book.
