I really loved the formatting and perspective switch of this book. Listening to the audiobook with one narrator made it less prevalent, but it was nice switching around and seeing the different things multiple characters were doing, and getting their backgrounds and thoughts. The characters were definitely the best part of this book - I found it easy to get attached to each of the main ones in totally different ways. I absolutely loved Elizabeth and her dynamics with the many different characters. I laughed, I got enraged, I was sad - gotta love a book that can do all three! Absolutely worth a read.
