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

1.0

Well written, but the main character was so horribly unlikable that I hated it. All the most interesting parts of the book happen during her drug induced blackouts so we only get to see the MC insufferably speculating about where she might have been. I don't think this author is for me at all.
