Spoilers should always be hidden using spoiler blur.
When discussing a specific section, please mention where you are in the book, ideally by chapter so people reading different versions have a clear point of reference.
Feel free to read ahead if it’s exciting, but please refrain from spoiling ahead of the appropriate week.
If you have a question about grammar, vocab, cultural things, etc - ask! That’s a welcome part of the discussion too, and other readers will be happy to help.
Famous last words. I’m pretty sure this whole chapter was politics, and whether due to tiredness or what, I got about 10% of it. Were you able to follow things well @Belerith?
I think so? I don’t remember being terribly lost, but I wouldn’t be able to tell you what it was about without some keywords to jog my memory. I can re read the section later if you want to compare notes.
I re-read this chapter and I think it might have been at least in part tiredness. It didn’t feel like it was markedly more difficult than the other chapters. I’d also say it was about 30% politics, 50% gossip and 20% Maomao really in need of some salty snacks.
