first of all, let me just say fuck colonialism!!! this book made me want to scream and cry everything in it was just so real (i.e. when you make the lovely discovery that your college actively funds oppressive regimes and their wars…what an absolutely crazy twist that could never ever have anything to do with real life!). felt like a nerd reading it but in a good way.
