Beautiful prose, but I wish there had been more world-building.  I found it hard to feel as invested as I wanted to be in this story sometimes. I almost wish the book had been longer
and it had taken more time for Blue and Red to realise their feelings for one another. It felt sudden and abrupt. I found the ending fantastic and wish the rest of the story had pulled me in like that.
