vcriveros 's review for:

Babel by R.F. Kuang
4.5
adventurous dark emotional mysterious sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Amazing world building and plot, with great insight and reflections on colonisation and history. The first half of the book is a bit slow - although it aims to round the characters and their relations, it drags a bit around the academic period.
