Katabasis | R.F. Kuang

4 Stars • R.F. Kuang‘s Katabasis (2025): Two rival Cambridge PhD students in analytic magick descend into a bleak, bureaucratic Hell to rescue their abusive mentor‘s soul after he dies without writing Alice‘s recommendation letter. A sharp, Dante-inspired satire of toxic academia, ambition, and self-destruction.

An absolute guilty pleasure read that I loved when it first came out. Rereading it on the beach was both addictive & made me roll my eyes. Obviously the relationships are toxic, but it‘s also incredibly entertaining. It‘s like eating a giant tub of ice cream, not great for you, but it taste good in the moment. Don‘t base your relationship goals off this book, but it‘s perfect teenage yearning vampire drama. I‘m off to read the rest of the series.

I think I can honestly say to read this after Crown of Midnight. It‘s a good break from the main story, but it‘s important background to have before the main story moves forward too much. I also loved how, although it was short stories, all connected to one another and it read like a full novel.

I cried, I yelled, I cursed.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The ghost seemed to be working for a Beetlejuice adjacent kind of spiritual administration. The love interest had an awful lot of trauma and childhood baggage to unpack. The local setting felt really sincere, if that‘s the right word. This was a paranormal romance and I enjoyed it, but it felt kind of strange too. Emphatically white christmasy, if that makes sense.

I really love this one. Minus all the s** scenes, of course...
And now, the 2nd book. Hope it doesn't disappoint.
