Review: Babel by R.F Kuang

Colonialism is not a machine capable of thinking, a body endowed with reason. It is naked violence and only gives in when confronted with greater violence.
Frantz Fanon, The Wretched of the Earth, translated by Richard Philcox

Review: The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty

A 4:3 crop of the cover of The Advenutures of Amina Al-Sirafi by Shannon Chakraborty

For the greatest crime of the poor in the eyes of the wealthy has always been to strike back. To fail to suffer in silence and instead disrupt their lives and their fantasies of a compassionate society that coincidentally set them on top. To say no.
From chapter 10 of The Adventures of Amina Al-Sirafi

Review: A Closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers

A square version of the cover of A closed and Common Orbit by Becky Chambers.

I first read a Becky Chambers book, the first book in her Wayfarers series back in 2022 during my reading challenge. I think it was the only book that year that I finished in one sitting. It was that good.
