  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No

3.5

The book hasn't aged very well mainly due to the long descriptions, both descriptions of nature and descriptions of feelings. The eloquence of the characters often made me roll my eyes in boredom, but it's all understandable given the time the book was written.
