Not my cup of tea, but well done. 
interesting characters and brings up interesting questions. I just didn’t find it had enough depth (of either plot or character) to hold my attention

“Interpretation can be profoundly disorienting, you can be so caught up in the minutiae of the act, in trying to maintain utmost fidelity to the words being spoken first by the subject and then by yourself, that you do not necessarily apprehend the sense of the sentences themselves: you literally do not know what you are saying. Language loses its meaning.”

3.5 :) it wasn’t bad the writing style just isn’t for me and it kind of felt more like a short story

first book i read in grade 11th and i remember being so confused with it because this was technically my second time reading a book since TPW. i would try to read it in between classes and in the car on my way to and way back from school. the goal was still the same as of now: to read as much books as possible and write book reviews and then practice essay writing (but i couldn’t do nada 👎 will try my best this year 🩷✨). i remember not even knowing what was going on and just wanting to finish it. but I do remember me trying to read this with girls in the beginning of the session wherein  the 4 or 5 would each read a page. and i also remember being intimidated by the criminal for the protagonist was the translator and kept imagining scenarios (fanfiction brainrot amirite). so ofc i will try to rewrite a review when i read this book again.
