Normally it’s hard for me to keep reading on with unlikeable characters, and I reallllly disliked these characters, but I could not stop listening. A very interesting insight into the publishing industry, including impacts of racism and cultural appropriation. This was my first RF Kuang book and not at all my last.
Graphic: Cultural appropriation, Death, and Racism
Moderate: Rape and Grief
