dark emotional hopeful mysterious sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

While the ending left a lot of loose ends, the book ended in a way where I didn't necessarily need to tie up all the different subplots. It leaves a lot to the imagination, not to mention Nora's extra content on Tumblr.
