emotional lighthearted reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

Very simple book. A bit boring, in my opinion. We go between past and present. The past parts are the most boring parts. I don't think they were all necessary. The main plot is a good idea but could have been written differently and made better. Again, that merely my opinion, and maybe this book is just not for me. But I do feel like if some of the past parts were removed, it could have gained a few stars
