  • 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? It's complicated

3.0

Quite a depressing read with highly unlikeable characters, which portrays the society of the 70's with heavy topics like discrimination, homophobia and women's oppression. It could easily have been 100-150 pages shorter though. And the fast character development was a bit unrealistic imo.
