um. okay. where to begin.

this book contains three things i adore: time travel, magic, and the unique love that comes from a sibling relationship. i did not expect to love this. but the writing, the characters, even the structure of this novel was perfectly tailored to my tastes and love for weird SFF shenanigans.

dodger. you are so important to me. you were written for me to read. thank you.

maybe the doctrine was the siblings we found along the way…
