- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
With most books like this, I find the last few chapters (the end) feels rushed and abbreviated. Last fifth of this book was so well arranged. The emotional sensation of the story and characters are slowly built and stacked, in a way you don't notice it's really happening through the text. And then at the end you get to walk into this completed structure, neatly designed and powerful, but not overwhelming.
