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

5.0

This was such a unique style of storytelling. I've never read anything like it. It was surprising to me that the narrator kept giving away huge parts of the plot and then going back and filling in information to get you to that part of the plot. Also, it was very different reading a book about WWII that focused on a German family. I'm so glad I finally read this!
