  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.5

def one of the only character study & slice of life books ive enjoyed. it enthralled me probably bc of relevance to my just-finished college experience. i rly do love archetypes, filled to the brims with details but still in a box, and seeing how they can be bent and stretched. typically i real strong plot books, but this one rly held me down through the entire first half where basically nothing has happened in the present time, and its all flashbacks/vignettes and contextualization. the ending made sense but i guess it wasnt as dramatic as i would of wanted but thats a personal preference
