“Why would God do that?”

“STOP TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE WILL OF GOD,” said Uriel. “IT NEVER HELPS.” --the archangel Uriel




Probably one of my favorite parts so far:

> "Are you all right?" Sohu finally asked.

> "I WAS TRYING TO WIGGLE MY EARS."

> Sohu wiggled her ears again.

> "YOU ARE VERY INTERESTING."

> "So will you teach me the kabbalah?"

> "NO."

it's so cute!! I love this


You might be the first person that I've recommended Unsong to that actually gave it a chance. :)


That's probably because the website doesn't have any hook at all! I had to google the book and find a summary of it in order to actually get curious. Then the first few paragraphs into the first chapter, it had already gotten me. The writing style is almost exactly like that of Ra. And it has over 70 chapters. wonderful!!

also, I love how many references it makes to actual programming; it's always hilarious to see Uriel explaining code bugs in reality.
