As a black woman reading this, it hit close to home. A white woman steals the work and words of a woman of color, in this case, Asian, and through it all, she’s the victim. Through it all, she’s the one who’s been wronged all her life. She’s the one who deserved all the accolades and not the great, award winning author she stole the book from. To the very end, she’s the victim. Very white woman of her. Very very white woman of her. RF Kaung, you are a genius. This was my introduction to RF Kuang and it’s very good. Very very good.
