Why is it with all the books I’ve read by R. F. Kuang it always comes down to entitled white Eurocentric powers trying to invade, colonize and get the very real or fictional state of China addicted to opium? And she’s so real for it honestly cause the real enemy all along is just an arrogant white man

#I know she’s not a history major but that’s a history major mood #finished dragon republic and I just have a few words to say: AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH *sobs heavily*#a beautiful book but also I should seek therapy #it’s so funny how I read Babel first and now I see it everywhere in the poly war trilogy #is this how everyone felt when they read Babel after reading the poppy war?#r f kuang #the dragon republic
