I liked the chapters when characters were more fleshed out but I think the compilation of several short POVs made it confusing at times to follow. I felt no real affinity to the characters due to the time jumps and changes in characters. I guess some characters were meant to just make you think and only had a short part to play and others were only rounded out in the very end. I liked the storytelling but the characters just didn’t do it for me :(
