A review by isha_p0702
Babel by R.F. Kuang
Did not finish book. Stopped at 50%.
DNF at 50%. This book is tedious and repetitive and i do not like any of the character work here either. This book should also not be a fantasy. If anything it is magical realism and a little of that. It also has a ton of historical imaccuracies and i can’t seem to get through another 300 pages with how the author hammers for the 1000th time how colonisation is bad and no white people can be actual allies. I also felt bad for how Letty was treated throughout the book by the other 3 main characters. Will get back to it after some time and give a full review.
Graphic: Bullying, Domestic abuse, Racism, Toxic friendship, and Colonisation
Moderate: Emotional abuse, Sexism, Religious bigotry, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Physical abuse, Racial slurs, Slavery, Death of parent, and Abandonment
