This book has a large cast of vivid characters and it does a great job at introducing them without overwhelming the reader. Each character has their own arc and the reader gets to know them very well. Some realize their mistakes and are able to grow, while others are a train wreck watched in slow motion. The ending is not that of a standalone book and does not provide resolution, so I'll be continuing with the second book right away.
