    “will always rave about this book because 1) gay shit 2) the beautiful and poetic writing 3) the way it's told through a series of letters between the main characters is so well done — tl;dr sci-fi, enemies to lovers, told through passages of time”

    “Trust a pair of poets to bundle your own recognizable memories of love into a tiny treasure like this book.”
