  • Plot- or character-driven? Character

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

half of my annotations are just "what the fuck" or, alternatively, "WHAT THE FUCK". worth a reread to try to find all the hints and foreshadowing! really enjoyed it but struggled to keep reading the 150 or so pages before Bunny dies.
