I really enjoyed this book. blue and red’s relationship was so dynamic and fun to watch unfold. i liked how they continued to try to one up each others letters. 
this story was more of a character study and the worldbuilding was a vehicle to tell a unique love story , but with it being so vague it took me out the story a lot of the time. i was too busy trying to figure out how the world worked to focus on red and blue. it made it hard for me to be fully immersed.
