When I read political dystopian novels written by women about revolutionary women, it’s always about organizing and building a rebellion from the ground up. Much like Tain Hu. Baru is a male character written as a woman by a male author and it shows. And because of her ultimately male-driven goals, she’s emotionally stunted. We do see emotion. But it’s mostly from other women in the book.

Good. The throne knows she’s a tribadist. Tain Hu has secured her revenge by ensuring there’s a secret held over her. Good work Tain Hu. You’ll die. But you’d have struck a significant blow before you do. It’s fuck Baru Cormorant everyday and twice on Sundays. The motherfucker.

I am so mad. So mad at my gullibility. Because it was in the slow section I failed to give credence to the weight of the conversation that should have had me doubting Baru’s allegiances. I should have known! Lyxaxu knew!

Also, why are all the reviews so focused on her betrayal & killing of Tain Hu? She betrayed & killed EVERYONE who rode with her! Tain Hu was just another obstacle. The most emotive one, but still just another obstacle. Of course she was getting killed! I’m so angry. I’ve been waiting for this but it’s been soiled by all the betrayals that came before. I hate Baru & I’m going to hate her while reading Book 2.

I don’t want to partake in Traitor Baru’s treachery. Do not force me to partake in this fool’s treachery. A compound fool!

I am a coward. I can’t do it. I don’t want to see this. Please Mr. Dickinson. Let the cost be enough. Please.

“‘The sword kills, but it is the arm that moves the sword. Is the arm to blame for murder, then? No. The mind moves the arm. Is the mind to blame? No. The mind has sworn an oath, and only does its duty, as written by the Throne. So it is that a servant of the Throne is blameless.’”
The fucking hierarchic qualm. Dont revive yourself Baru. You are not blameless.

They’re going to ask her to kill Tain Hu aren’t they?? 😭😭😭
Should I even be completing this book?? Like it’s fine up to where I’ve read. I’m good. I don’t need to know anymore. It’s okay. She’s truly the traitor baru cormorant.
Must I hate her too as part of this humiliating conclusion??
How empty everything has been! She’s so stupid! An arrant fool!!
