So compulsively, delectably readable. I read it in one sitting, something I haven’t done for a long time. Somehow the story was both straightforward and easy to follow, simple on the surface, but with so much nuance and small blink-and-you’ll-miss-it commentary underneath. So so so smart, RF Kuang you will always be famous. I may add more thoughts later but I need to go to Sleep
