challenging dark emotional medium-paced

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

5.0

I am going to have to pore over this with a pencil. 10/10, cried a few times, prose is beautiful I need to write a full review
