Tamara Ashby’s Reviews > Babel > Status Update

Good luck. Heads up- this one starts slow and you are going to probably hate the setting of it all, but this is by design. It is setting itself up.

I keep reading because I know it should get good, but the first part is soooo boring 🥱. He just met his 1/2 brother. Hopefully things will pick up soon.

I think the book itself is such a great metaphor for Babel in itself hahaha It is long and pretentious. It's crazy how I got SO much out of this book, but most of it honestly was quite boring. A lot of philosophy. But I'm a sucker for dark academia and this type of fantasy so I am biased towards what I got out of it. I hope you get it as well :)

My favorite part is when I fell asleep listening to it and they were in a lecture. When I woke up....they were still in the lecture.
