While I already knew that I love Collins' plots and characters, I had my doubts if he could justify filling 600 pages with what sounded like a simple story. Little did I know that the tale of a young, joyful girl that fights for what is rightfully hers would turn into pretty much a story from a villain's POV. The character development is wonderfully intriguing, as are the turns this book takes. While there might be too much descriptions here and there and some dialogs go on a tiny bit too long, I'm convinced the length of the novel absolutely makes sense. There is room to explore the different stages of the story and focus for a while on aspects some books would glance other. The pacing never suffers, though, since some "between the scenes" developments are brought to you in letters. I also love how there is no character I could just 100% get behind (moral ambiguity is always fun) but still rooted for what is basically a terrible person. I was just fascinated and thoroughly entertained throughout.
