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

3.0

Story's bones were great and up to about 3/4 of the way through the book really gripped me. However some events happen that make the story both hard to follow, as well as slow down the pace of the story dramatically which really made me have to power through. 

It was a good library read.
