Is it just us, or do you feel like class was still in session for the summer? Between a witchy campus, a group of rarely sober students on a Vermont college, and now the Wheel has brought us all the way to an ancient school in the middle of the Industrial Revolution, we've been educated, to say the least.
The Wheel of Doom has granted us mercy and even more so, a brilliant response to last month's pick. R.F. Kuang's Babel: Or the Necessity of Violence: An Arcane History of the Oxford Translators' Revolution dropped us in the middle of one of the most tumultuous era in British history-- in addition to a number of other countries who were unfortunately dragged into the mix.
So please, bring all the aforementioned supplies from the last two unintentionally school themed episodes in addition to a box of tissues, because you're going to need it.
