Complicated

Complicated
Diverse cast of characters:
Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
I liked it well enough but I was overwhelmed by the sheer amount of characters that were introduced. The core group started to form and I could keep track but there were so many names I had to keep thinking back to figure out if they were new or someone previously introduced. I also feel like the chapters were disjointed some times with the passage of time - it just wasn't clear. But all things considered, maybe it was purposeful? The story was interesting, the imagery was gory but well written, and I thought the ending was nice. I wanted to like it more but I was just so confused half the time over where people were at a time and who they were.
I bet this book would be awesome turned into a show or movie!
