Read this with my partner and we took turns reading for Red and Blue so that was extra special. The only time war lost is the time you'll spend devouring this book -- it's fast, it's intriguing, some analogies are somewhat nebulous and more than a few did go over my head at points but overall a romantic and beautiful read.♥️💙
