- Strong character development? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
1.25
The 1.25 stars is for the occasional moment of loveliness in the prose and that I got to think about terns and boats a lot while reading this book.

That being said I found myself rooting for Franny even with all her self destructive behavior. The impulse to be wildly free and to ignore problems and to grapple with internal guilt are all very relatable feelings for me.
In some ways I feel like this book was speaking directly to me.
I'd recommend it if you like a book with a journey and a slew of complicated characters.
