2.25

reflective slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Really just forgettable and dull. Gazala, the exotic, chic, seemingly head of this chosen family had the slowest section of the book. I had to read her part in a French accent to get through it. Honey and Lily were the most interesting characters for me. It was more a collection of timeline jumping stories than a coherent plot. Quick read but kind of a mess
