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

I had a hard time connecting with the book. It's pretty slow, even though the whole story takes place in a span of hours, I just couldn't get past the first few chapters. I gave it a chance, but it didn't get my full attention.
I must admit, it does have a plot twist that I didn't see coming.
Who would have imagined all that was about to unfold in the story near the end.
And the characters were well developed, so you either hate them or love them.
Still, I didn't manage to fully connect with the story. I didn't like it completely and only managed to "enjoy it" already near the end, which is not what I look for and like in a book.
