• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

5.0

How does Melina Marchetta keep knocking it out of the park? She just writes teenagers so well, and brings the world around Francesca to life. I think I might like this more than Looking for Alibrandi as it has a bigger focus on friendship.
