  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

The book completely falls apart in the closing chapters, in a way which sabotages its quasi-sequel. The Candy House handles this book’s themes better and lacks its significant flaws.
