emotional
mysterious
reflective
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Strong character development:
Yes
Loveable characters:
Yes
Diverse cast of characters:
No
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Complicated
A deeply emotionally true book at the same time as being an adventure that isn't really about the emotions. Plus a twist at the end that both makes perfect sense and I super didn't see coming. Such a compelling read. Hand to any animal lover, fantasy reader, or maybe just anyone.
