I didn't want it to end so I read it slowly. I gave breaks for my brain to absorb it and to process it and to hold on to the after taste of each chapter. This stiry will stay with me. ❤️💙📚

Gift from my boyfriend that I read in 1 1/2 hours, crying increasingly more and even sobbing as the book went on.
Made extra special by him leaving notes for me inside <3
God what an amazing book.

hey it's that one scene from #ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar
Looks like LLMs are *very* vulnerable to attack via poetic allusion: "curated poetic prompts yielded high attack-success rates (ASR), with some providers exceeding 90% ..."

This has been one of the least forgiving texts I’ve read in a while. But it’s grown on me. Can’t wait to return to it in a year or two, to see what I discover. #ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar #AmalElMohtar #MaxGladstone #BookChat #booksky

Red and Blue find a place they can be together.

And then they adopt a dog.

Done in five minutes on my phone so it looks terrible, but when you said Red vs Blue I couldn't resist. Forgive me.

"Lumberjackery". Hah. Can't say I've ever read that word in a book before. Until now. #ThisisHowYouLosetheTimeWar

Somehow tricked my brain into being excited about reading again, and that's how the latter half of my 2025 is going.

Currently reading through #thisishowyoulosethetimewar and, while only being 54 pages in, I've caught myself staring at a page for minutes in disbelief of how undeniably beautiful 1/?

"Hunger, Red—to sate a hunger or to stoke it, to feel hunger as a furnace, to trace its edges like teeth—is this a thing you, singly, know? "

#ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar by #AmalElMohtar & #MaxGladstone is an incredible example of creative use of epistolary storytelling! It was a blast to read through a time bending love story that carries the reader through a kaleidoscoping war between two all powerful factions with the same weakness 📚💙

I fear #thisishowyoulosethetimewar and “Devotions” by Mary Oliver are about to become my whole personality this summer and I will not be apologizing for that ✨

#ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar is the rare speculative fiction novel that manages to be both incredibly rich with meaning and remarkably brief in page count.

I wrote a little about what goes into making this book such a masterpiece:
