  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

It's a well-paced story but not quite mysterious enough for me in the sense that we as the reader are not really fed clues to try and figure it out. However,
the back stories about the characters were interesting and diverse. It focused on mental health, sexual assault, abuse, childhood trauma etc. I appreciated that the characters had their own issues.
