3.0

Interesting concept. I feel like it simultaneously needed more plot and fewer characters. So much time was lost with switching between characters without much happening. I also found it hard to be invested in most of the characters since we were only with them for a short period of time. 

The narration was good but not great. 

I feel like this is the book equivalent of a “Sunday Driver.” It scenic and was enjoyable but took a long time to get there- and you might’ve fallen asleep along the way.
