2.5
lighthearted reflective relaxing slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I know this is a well loved book and series, but I just kind of didn’t like it. I am having a hard time pinpointing why, but I think it is a combination of the following: 1. I struggled to connect with the characters, which may be partly because of the frequent pov changes between a lot of people. 2. The political/social commentary missed the mark for me. I kept feeling like it was superficial or inconsistent and the end failed to make a clear message/felt contradictory to earlier messages. 3. I was expecting more adventure- I don’t think I couldn’t enjoy slice of life, but with the above issues, I just found myself very bored and like nothing happened.
