Here are two reads that explore love in all its lyricality, beauty, and terrors.\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is How You Lose the Time War is a creative, abstract and lyrical love story. Among the ashes of a dying world, an agent of the Commandant finds a letter. It reads: Burn before reading. Thus begins an unlikely correspondence between two rival agents hellbent on securing the best possible future for their warring factions. Now, what began as a taunt, a battlefield boast, grows into something more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pisces, though marketed as a romance fiction, is also largely about femininity, anxiety and obsession. It begins when Lucy, who has been writing her dissertation about Sappho for thirteen years, breaks up with Jamie. After she hits rock bottom in Phoenix, her Los Angeles-based sister insists Lucy housesit for the summer—her only tasks caring for a beloved diabetic dog and trying to learn to care for herself. Annika’s home is a gorgeous glass cube atop Venice Beach, but Lucy can find no peace from her misery and anxiety—not in her love addiction group therapy meetings, not in frequent Tinder meetups, not in Dominic the foxhound’s easy affection, not in ruminating on the ancient Greeks. Yet everything changes when Lucy becomes entranced by an eerily attractive swimmer one night while sitting alone on the beach rocks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eConsists of: This Is How You Lose the Time War (Like New), The Pisces (Very Good)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39445668757585,"sku":"","price":96.0,"currency_code":"MYR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/products\/july-2021-bookbundle-15.jpg?v=1717778412","url":"https:\/\/thryft.my\/products\/july-2021-bookbundle-15","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
