- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.5
Was very slow until about 60%, then proceeded more quickly. The confusion around the mystery is a little over the top (why didn't they just *tell* her and the romantic relationship felt forced and the big relationship "remember now?" at the end felt unearned. The author could have dropped more hints so it was less of an unnecessary addition.
Graphic: Forced institutionalization
Moderate: Violence and Blood
Minor: War
