slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

2.5

Loved the premise, but the writing style is very particular and takes some getting used to. I found it difficult to work out what was going on in some scenes, and the plot suffered as a result. The fruit curses were fine as a character quirk, but for me they were too frequent and quickly became annoying.
