I found Janina charming. She's unlike any other main character I've read in books, with her very strong opinions and strict worldview. Her deep philosophical thoughts about death and who should be allowed to kill as well as the book's discussion of revenge were constantly churning in my mind as I read this. I really liked the ending and was satisfied with my reading experience as a whole.
