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

4.0

From the first five minutes of me starting this book, I was hooked and knew exactly how I wanted it to end. While I didn't get exactly what I wanted, I got pretty damn close. Great ploy twists, keeps you hooked the entire way through.
