  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

Given that I have met many a reader who was mad at It Ends With Us not mentioning its abuse, it’s important that we say this book contains a rape in a conservative town,
and does not end as one would like.
It is emotional, and creates the question of do we read the sequel, given the devastation of this one.
