  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.5

Not a fan of the needlessly-inserted love interest. All of Felix’s chapters were hopelessly out of place and I skipped most of them. Jesus Christ the Cartographers are long-winded. And wow, was
Wally’s motive for the whole thing flimsy to anyone else? Guy just had an obsessive personality I guess. Also, yikes on bikes was Swann’s death meaningless! I don’t know what it accomplished other than more trauma.
This book was great in the beginning and really epically bad in the end.
