Wow. I’ve never read a book like this before. I heard good things beforehand, and I was pleased that I enjoyed it as much as I did. 

The writing is decadent and poetic. I’m not going to lie and say that I completely understood the sci-fi elements, but it didn’t matter to be honest. 

This book had me silently screaming. Sapphic enemies to lovers plus time-travel is just *chef’s kiss*. 

I want to read this again and again. Highly recommend.
