This Is How You Lose the Time War

The first time I started reading this I didn't really care for it, I thought the prose was beautiful, but it wasn't enough to keep me interested and I dropped it for several months. Yesterday I picked the audiobook and listened to it from the beginning and I finally understand the hype around it.

As I said the writing here is really beautiful, the work is really well crafted and the romance is delightful in its yearning. And I think it really accomplishes what it sets out to. It's a love story told in letters, and the time travel part of it is good in a way that leaves you itching for more in-depth descriptions. I did see the twist coming and was thrilled by it.
