Babel by R.F. Kuang
5.0
adventurous challenging dark emotional reflective tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

this is my first introduction to miss rebecca kuang (thank you Noe) and from now on i will be reading everything that she writes. i think she is brilliant and that shows in her writing. the historical context is so well researched and the critics of colonialism, sexism and racism of the time are written with intention but blend perfectly into the story. i devoured this book and now i don’t know what to do with my life.
