challenging emotional informative sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

The book starts a bit clunky feeling a bit like a pamphlet against capital punishment. Afterwards, the story flows better and becomes more interesting and engaging.

Otherwise, it is quite interesting that two possible endings are presented and that this leaves a part of the moral judgement to the reader.
