This Is How You Lose the Time War by Max Gladstone, Amal El-Mohtar
5.0
"My Blueprint,"
"My Heart's Own Blood,"
“I love you. I love you. I love you. I’ll write it in the waves. In skies. In my heart. You’ll never see, but you will know. I’ll be all the poets, I’ll kill them all and take each one’s place in turn, and every time love’s written in all the strands it will be to you.”
Somehow, this felt like a perfect read after The Six Deaths of the Saint and honestly, one of the most romantic stories I've experienced in a long time.
The prose was lovely and lyrical. The worldbuilding was fascinating. As the prophets say: a stunning gut-punch to my soul.
