Romance (the genre) isn't really my thing, which is why "This Is How You Lose The Time War" wasn't a perfect 10 for me, but the line "I want to meet you in every place I ever loved" will never not be iconic. It goes SO hard.

Interesting essay speculating on why some don't like #ThisIsHowYouLoseTheTimeWar. That's it's poetic--a portrait of feeling revealed in words--rather than a portrait of ideas revealed through action. And yet it relies entirely upon a huge canon of fantastic fiction to be able to sketch those feelings through dense reference and allusion, including many I didn't recognize. And yet very much still a 'fantasy of political agency.'

Soo #bookstodon , if i thought How You Lose The Time War was a fantastic premise but wanted more sci-fi and character development rather than a romance, what books would you recommend?
