  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No

  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

Really just purchased this to read for childhood sentimental purposes. 
But honestly a bit disappointed. Basically half the book is spent going into detail about the things he builds on the island (felt more like I was reminiscing my childhood with Bob the builder) and overall it was just really boring. For a book under 300 pages the time in which it took me to finish it should be evidence enough of how boring I found it.
