I love, love, love This Is How You Lose The Time War. Highly recommend the audio book - it's not very long (a little over 4 hours), and the narration adds a little something special to an already special story.

The ambiguity feels like a feature and not a bug.

Felt like Spy vs Spy for me, except they fall in love

Agree with this wholeheartedly. I think treating the time travel - and for that matter the faction war - as backdrop and not as mechanical to the story leads it to be much more nuanced and interesting; it just is. It is certainly not a mechanical time travel story like Primer or Looper in this instance.
