This is How you Lose the Time War by Amal el-Mohtar

 This book just didn't work for me.  I only got part way through before abandoning it.

 

It's a clever idea, that characters involved on opposing side of a long-running time war start a correspondence, but I found I had little interest in the characters, and little idea of why the time war was being fought.

 

The descriptive text is very good, but that's not enough to hook me on a book.

Same! I did not finish it either.
