by Sarah Penner
adventurous
mysterious
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
No
This was such a fun read. I fully devoured it in one day. I feel like my main problem was that I wanted more of it, in the sense that thei lived the characters, but I didn't feel like I got to spend enough time with them doing their thing.
For example, one of the MCs is a diver, and we only see her go on [redacted] dives. I really would have liked to spend more time in that part of the story because it's such a key part of the character, and it's so interesting, it felt like it should have been a bigger focus.
So. Good book, I do recommend, and I want more.
