- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated

- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

This was a wild ride. It definitely felt authentic to the 80s, which was such an interesting (and not as great) time. I find it hard to rate the book any higher because of the subject matter but I did like the ending about friendship.
