4.25

Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

I lovedddd the concept of this book and really enjoyed all characters (even the not so good people ones). This author does an amazing job of characterizing and making it easy to visualize a character; the narrator also did an amazing job embodying each one. This was both entertaining and had all the dark and realistic elements to keep me hooked. Basil was so much fun and Sade was such a good MC, I loved how her mind worked. Will be reading more by this author!
