Me (a chronic dweller and over-thinker in my 20s) when a book mainly consists of over-thinkers in their 20s ruminating (but in the underworld!): 😁😍🔥
I can see where the criticisms for this book are coming from, but I’m having a blast. Also, it does seem that Kuang has listened to the criticisms of Babel and done less info-dumping here (or maybe is doing more engaging info-dumping here?)

This book is very explicitly about academia and all its pitfalls and will definitely deliver a certain catharsis to anyone who’s spent 1+ year in academia
