RF Kuang does it again with a story I could not put down. A romance heart, Katabasis is about two graduate students as they journey to Hell to retrieve their asshole advisor they both had a hand in killing. The twists were shocking and while I feared this book would be too long, the incredible prose, complex plot, and heartwarming characters ultimately made it a quick read. Can't wait for this to come out so I can force all my friends to read another book by her.
