  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.0

Sound concept, and  I cared enough about the outcome to finish. 

I didn’t connect with the characters though, which really defeats the purpose of a story about family, love, and metaphysics. 

The world building and prose were clunky.
