Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
The Dutch (inspired) names and history were something to get used to - they deterred me because really, it felt a bit cringey. But I am glad I pushed on! Because Leigh Bardugo created a whirlwind of a story, in a wonderful world with characters that relate well to each other and all have their own twists, thoughts, and story. Great use of flashbacks and different POVs which kept the plot moving at great speed - although it was sometimes a bit too rushed and it is a bit uncertain how old the cast are supposed to be.
