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

Meh.....
Picked this up at the library because I got #2 and #3 at a book sale.
Not sure what all the hype is about, and absolutely flabbergasted that this has been made into a movie.
The book relies heavily on the running internal dialogue of the main character, fleshed out by flashbacks.
It is interesting, but not at all cohesive (maybe that is why there are a #2 and #3?) and certainly not resolved in any way.

I surprisingly enjoyed this. I disliked the movie soooo much and I'm glad the book was better. Can't wait to read the next book.
