This was hard for me to read, like maybe it was too cerebral or trying to be that, but either way, I felt like I didn’t really ever understand the war or the time travel system, or really the characters very much. I did like the last few scenes and thought they were interesting. I struggled to convince myself to pick it up, and for such a short book it took me a whole month to get through.
Each individual scene was beautiful to read, but I didn’t feel like I knew more after each one or that they formed a cohesive story. I think that as much as I enjoy Time Travel when two characters consistently meet on different points in their stream, it’s inherently confusing, and the author didn’t help with that here. Instead I was more lost by the world/society that I also didn’t understand.
