Amal El-Mohtar, Max Gladstone: This Is How You Lose the Time War (Hardcover, 2019, Simon and Schuster) 4 stars

I'm only on the third chapter and I'm already loving this.

Time agents on opposite sides a temporal war who become engaged in a lesbian romance. Each of them from a future that mutually excludes the other's very existence.

Thus far, a full half of the novella has been the correspondence the two agents have left for each other across time and space while they carry out their missions.
