- Plot- or character-driven? Character
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
Wharton's writing style is gorgeous and evocative. The plots/conclusions of these two novels (novellas?) were emotionally gutting, but even though Wharton rips your heart out she does it in a beautiful manner.
