it was amazing
bookshelves: currently-reading
Reading for the 2nd time. Most recently started December 15, 2024.

The most enthralling book I've read all year. A literary marvel that made learning other languages sound magic, not just due to the fantasy nature of the story. The characters were vivid and unique, the descriptions of university echoed my own experience of wonder. A magical read.

Ken Reid and I just learned that the author is a 26 year old graduate student. Incredible.
