Strong character development: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: No

I think the growth in this book is what makes it special. But there are certainly moments that drag a bit. 

Elsa’s determination for her children in spite of a world that wants to eat them alive is a testament to a different kind of love story. Hanna’s ability to write of motherhood and hardship and femininity and create such a heartbreaking story through all of it is something I will be unable to stop thinking about.
