R.F. Kuang is a literary genius. Please do pick up this book, as it’s wonderful. You can definitely see her extensive education in languages bleed into this magnificent piece of work. What a joyous and yet simultaneously traumatizing experience.
It is true what the people say about R.F. Kuang often killing off characters. Proceed with emotional caution upon reading.
