  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.0

absolutely adored the dialogue, the way the character spoke, was so humorous, and also felt real. I didn’t love some of the back story that we got; some of the flashbacks felt like they were their own stories that should’ve been their own book entirely. I also was left, wanting more from the current timeline. but was overall very enjoyable :) reminded me the shortness of life and had me thinking about aging a lot
