Did not expect to be so engrossed in the story as much as I was. It’s somewhat a difficult read as the prose is extremely poetic and the way the authors explain situations and events can be very abstract. But I loved that about it. Time travel is explained in the same way a poet describes the divinity of a sunset and how changes the observable landscape. It’s just such a beautifully written book with a beautiful story.
