This book is so hard to review. R. F. Kuang does an amazing job of keeping you off kilter and mouth agape the entire time. Did I have a good time? I don't know. Was it cuttingly written and doing fascinating things? Oh absolutely! 

Also, if you know much about any of the scandals of the book publishing world of the last few years, watch out for the references to real things!
