Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

it was a beautiful story of grief and recovery, and i'm not going to ignore that, but i ended up wishing for more.

i wished they had more time as enemies. i wished julian had time to recover from the death of his lover. i wished deacon had time to understand his sexuality.

i wished so much that i couldn't connect, which ended up taking away from the experience. it left a bitter taste, for sure, but it was still worth it.
