    This was a great vlog to watch as I’ve been wondering about Babel.

    Thanks for your review. I couldn’t decide whether I wanted to invest the reading time, but now it’s a definite yes. I enjoy your videos!

    Babel was one of the best books I read last year 😉 I made a top 5 on my channel and Babel took second place, only being beaten by To Kill a Mockingbird 😛 I also made a review on my channel...it was my second video that I posted 😉

    Watching your video reminded me that the preface is an unsubtle humblebrag that I thought was kind of charming. I wasn’t bothered by the heavy handed explanations because I thought it was written as a response to Harry Potter and the intended audience was middle grade/young readers, so that specific criticism of the book also baffles me.

      Yeh I’ve seen the preface described as ‘overly defensive’ but I think that’s pretty harsh!!

    Very much enjoying your raw video and low key vibes! Keep up the content! It’s truly great.
    Would personally love to see what you think about the book ‘earthlings’ by. Sayaka murata 😈

      aah I've seen Earthlings floating around but wasn't sure what to make of it. I'm really enjoying more dystopian/fantasy/all sorts atm tho so have added it to the tbr. PS glad you like the vid vibes !
