I really enjoyed this book, I got quite absorbed in it and was annoyed when my reading was interrupted 😆 The plot is sort of like You've Got Mail (which is based on another older story) but set in WWI or WWII, but with Gods instead of countries leading the war. I think all of that was done well. I loved all of the side characters we got to meet. There was some really beautiful writing. I figured out what was happening towards the end of the story and dreaded the cliffhanger it would lead to, it will be a painful wait for the next book!
