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

OUCH!!!! You know when you’re little and your mom tells you not to touch the stove because it’s hot? And you do it anyway because you just want to know? And then it burns you and hurts like the devil? Yeah……. Reading this book was like that. All my friends told me how much it was going to break my heart and I was like ok sign me up. 

Seriously though… what a good story. Listened to it on audio and even my husband enjoyed it- he’s not a reader.
