Thanks for a great Crossings Book Club discussion of This Is How You Lose the Time War! To play us out: the megaviral tweet that launched this book up the bestseller charts last year (and, for an added bonus, both authors' thoughts on the whole surreal experience: Max Gladstone's here, and Amal El-Mohtar's here).
One last discussion question for the floor: if you could make one book recommendation and have it get the same unexpectedly viral results, what book would you choose and why?
The day is here! The Crossings Book Club cordially invites you to our discussion of This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone, today at 8pm EST (visit the CrossingsCon website for a link to our Gather space).
Tomorrow at 8 EST, the Crossings Book Club shifts from the future to the present, for our discussion of This Is How You Lose the Time War! Next, mark your calendars for April 27, when we'll head back upthread and check in on The King of Attolia!
