2.5

emotional informative sad tense slow-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: No

Loveable characters: No

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

---

I thought this was extremely repetitive! The characters were very flawed and not very likeable. I think if this was a short story, it would have been better, because the message was just repeated way too many times throughout the book…
