Best for readers who...
Good fit if you want...
- You are looking for a family read with an easy-to-follow story.
- You need a book written with younger readers in mind.

- You are looking for a book written mainly for adults.
- If you dislike unreliable narrators, political maneuvering and power dynamics are central, not just background color.
