however, i can see how some readers don't like the second half as it slows down in action, but underneath it's an emotional build.
i think overall this is a very solid addition to dark academia. honestly still processing that last 10% 😭

The complexity of the characters felt realistic and I was incredibly attached to them all, especially Robin. I loved the world building around translation.
I will say that it's quite a slow pace, and part 5 really dragged for me. Overall though I really think it's a masterpiece.
