This Is How You Lose the Time War by Max Gladstone, Amal El-Mohtar

1.0

Sorry. My rating is entirely based on my enjoyment of the story, which was not at all. Not even a little bit. The writing style, while gorgeous, was very hard to understand and follow. I literally stopped caring, and stopped trying to fully understand, less than halfway through. I continued since the book is so short, and so well loved, I assumed it would get better. I mean, it had to, and I wanted it to, because all things considered is a book I'd usually fall in love with. I couldn't find it in me to have any empathy for Red or Blue; I found that, for the plot and concept of this book, it would be WAY more interesting to read about it. This was so boring and a little pretentious to me. I'm so sorry. I truly couldn't wait for this to be over.
