  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? Yes

3.0

This had a lot of great emotional beats, great writing, and enough intrigue to keep me going, but at the same time the writing style took some getting used to and the pacing was often too slow for my liking. I would have liked a better balance between prose and dialogue.
