Whether it's sci-fi or fantasy, you like a big series. You love when a book says 1 of 5/10/50+. Is the reading order of the series hotly debated? Is there a wiki chart to show how the books connect? Even better. Come spend some time in these worlds.
Gia17 finished reading and wrote a review...
I love this book so much. Weāre sometimes told that, indeed, every time we lose our cool, itās a generational problem. āHave a breathing technique,ā āTime out,ā etc. But this book is not about that. This book explains to us the root problem, and it helps me so much to change my beliefs, to be more realistic and kind to myself. One chapter that spoke very loudly to me was the one about perfectionism. I have tendencies to be busy all the time, get everything check-listed, pay attention to detail, and be super perfectionist. This book made me realize that we need to stop aiming to have it all, that being a perfectionist is actually really damaging. I will definitely come back to this book again.

Iāve already fallen in love with Babel -- the world-building, the magic, omg. I was so pumped when they arrived at Oxford for the first time -- it reminded me that I need to start preparing my essay for the Chevening application, lol. Even though thereās no way Oxford would be one of my choices, it just feels impossible. Anyway, Iām already so invested!

I feel like on TikTok and Instagram this has become a sensitive topic but do you think reading is inherently political? Or do you think politics should stay out of book discussions and overall reading?
