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

3.0

I read this book because my tutor told me to, and honestly? The writing was good, the characters were interesting, and the story had a nice pace. I overall enjoyed reading it. Why did I remove two stars, then, you might ask? The animal deaths. The HUMAN deaths. It made me sick to my stomach, and I'm used to reading books with gore and violence (but usually in a fantasy setting). It was too much.
