Rory’s Reviews > Babel > Status Update

the cohort is so found family rn and if this gets crushed bc of the hermes society i will be so sad

i bet that robin is stealing one of the grammaticas at some point

ramy has immediately made a strong impression as one of my favorite characters

i can already tell this book will take me a long time to get through because of how dense it is, and for the first time in a while that actually excites me! i love the conversations and commentary on the power of language, its origins, and how understanding not just words but culture gives someone agency.

“The choice was his. Only he could determine the truth, because only he could communicate it to all parties.”

i feel like this is going to be a big theme throughout this book based off robin’s setup so far…

kicking my feet giggling SO EXCITED TO READ THIS
