dark emotional sad tense fast-paced

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

3.5

glad i learned about what was happening historically in malaysia during british colonial rule/japanese imperialism/wwii but this book was quite depressing and i did not like the main character. wish there was more room for imagining what the characters were thinking/feeling
