adventurous dark tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? No

2.0

enjoyed the epic poem story-telling elements but the main character lacked agency in the novel (i know thats due to the time period but i thought she would find ways to go work around it)
