The proportion of readers who saw little character development in this book surprised me until I thought about how differently people can think about "character development". Do these characters become *better* people over the course of the novel? Absolutely not. They start bad and get worse. But they do *develop*: they change. Our awareness of them grows and changes. That's character development from a writing analysis standpoint.
