medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.5
The first half of the book is kinda slowly and can mess with your head a little since the main character is struggling with the way of the new world but it gets dark, gross and kinda/really messed up in the second half.
