challenging
dark
funny

Plot or Character Driven:
Plot
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I haven't gotten sucked into a book like this in a long time. Definitely scratches the Harry Potter itch, while avoiding being horribly bigoted. That said, I feel like Novik's world building is deeply original and satisfying. Can't wait for the second one.
