  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

3.5

I was unsure how I felt about this book the whole way through, and I'm still not sure. But that is how every Neil Gaiman book has made me feel and I keep reading them so?

It gave me strong Wrinkle in Time vibes - where there are Mystical Adults who know about The Universe and some poor normal kid gets swept up in it and has to figure it out alone.
