• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

It was a good book and the story is interesting. The writing is slightly hasty and sometimes moves too quickly to really feel the fear the characters are feeling, but I enjoy the concept and would read a sequel.
