Even with the third part, this shit is so... To critique orientalism and then still go ham with the orientalism, playing into the very tropes one was trying to dismantle. To hell with rich diasporic authors.

Edit after I've read some 1 star reviews; miss naga idk if you saw but they're calling you an orientalist faker on Goodreads, they're lighting your ass up.
