if you ever feel good about yourself just remember that rf kuang wrote and published the poppy war, the dragon republic, the burning god, babel: an arcane history and yellowface all before turning 28

My heart will never not break when thinking about the significance of Robin's name in Babel. From the beginning until the very last page of the book, the way Kuang so beautifully yet tragically portrayed his journey is brilliant. [Spoilers ahead]

During his last moments,it wasn't the Robin who was brave enough to bring about a revolution and go against everything he was made to believe in. He was no hero. He was that young boy from Canton who wanted nothing but his mother to recover. I will never get over this book.

don’t get why people are hating on katabasis.

‘oh it’s not up to her usual standard’

i’ve just finished it, and like what do you even mean. it ticks all the boxes-

main character is -

fucking unhinged ✅

not very likeable ✅

makes bad decisions ✅

impressively delusional ✅

plot structure that 180s everytime you think that you’re catching on ✅

‘what the fuck have i just read’ feeling that you get after finishing an r.f kuang book ✅

sharp criticism of systematic flaws and corruption ✅

9.5/10, only one note - i was robbed of an epilogue, rebecca I WANT AN EPILOGUE

the way people talk about rf kuang and her books is starting to be racist. obv no one is above criticism, but holy shit sometimes the 'criticism' is just not valid because it is so fucking stupid. i've never seen a single white author whose work is torn apart like this. rebecca, i'm buying you a gun.

#rf kuang #the poppy war #babel an arcane history #katabasis #yellowface #like yes obviously shit is subjective but the way everyone has this tone in their reviews is pissing me off #THEYRE SO CONDECENDING AND SHIT ITS PISSING ME OFF BACK OFF
