I’m very glad to read that some people enjoyed it hahaha. The opium part hits hard, to be honest
The magic system was great, and I really enjoyed the linguistics parts. However, the characters felt incredibly boring, bland, kinda stupid at times… For a world with magic, it felt just like ours, and in fact magic changes nothing in its history compared to ours.
The footnotes were the cherry on top of my dislike, turning it into loathe. I don’t like being told what to think and how to interpret things.
I felt that Kuang was breathing down my nape, silently watching me to make sure I got the point of that slavery, capitalism and colonialism are bad.

Yes!
I disliked Poppy War too, but Babel sounded just like the kind of book I’d love. Now I’ve decided I won’t read more stuff from Kuang in a while, she’s not for me, at least right now.
THAT’S IT. That’s how I feel hahahha. Also the characters, good God, they were like flour.
Yes but as I mentioned in the post, I kept expecting it to improve, as the reviews said. Being honest, I didn’t dislike the very end, but the rest…
I did like the magic system, and in fact it was what drew me to the book at first.
Sadly, I found the characters bland and annoying. The footnotes were the cherry on top, as I feel they were extremely condescendent.
I’m very glad to hear that you enjoyed it tho! That’s what books are for!
Happy Birthday!!! I wish you a great day and lots of love!!!
I only use it for yoga, but a friend also uses it for meditation and rotations
More like a yearly subscription, but Down Dog. Keeps me active and I never get bored with them because the app is very customizable!
I noticed after a couple of minutes hahah

My favorite book and the anime I’m currently watching
I’ve been using it for over a year. It makes my life easier, to be honest. I’m on the 5€ plan because I don’t need more than 300 searches per month.
I like how customisable the search results are, the lack of SEO stuff and I’m a big fan of the “small internet” results.
Thanks!!
I do not, sadly
Uh? This is great lol
At least you got something out of it hahahah
