I have seen a lot of discourse regarding Katabasis

I have seen a lot of discourse regarding Katabasis where one either enjoyed their reading experience, or they didn’t. Having not read any of Kuang’s other works, my only expectation was that: 1) it’s probably going to be too smart for me, and 2) I was going to enjoy it.

It did end up being too smart for me. However, despite it being very academic, and very close to reading like a textbook in some places, I still enjoyed it. Yes, I enjoyed every minute I spent in hell.

The thing with Katabasis is it’s more than Alice and Peter’s descent to hell to get their professor back. It’s a person taking advantage of another. It’s sexism. It’s the decision to move forward, even when you no longer want to. It’s the shattering of a belief. It’s realizing you have placed someone undeserving on a pedestal.

Not gonna lie though, I was hoping for a different ending… but that’s just me.

“About three things I was absolutely positive. F

“About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn’t know how potent that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.”

I think I better get on reading the rest of @sara_raasch books before Orok’s come out next year…

I still stand by the truth that Sebastian is so much stronger than me, because oh boy, Thio doesn’t have to do much and I’d fold 😅
