I mostly wish it was longer!! But yeahh it wouldn't have really worked if it was. The world building is so intriguing I kinda wish we got to learn more as I was left with a few unanswered questions (major spoilers!!!!:)(like why does Red from the future (the seeker) follow Red to places/times where letters weren't exchanged? Also how did Blue know Red's real name?
I was so invested and interested the whole time though it was a super fun read (although I definitely needed peace and quiet to be able to comprehend some of that language lol)

Graphic: Body horror, Confinement, Death, Violence, Blood, Grief, Suicide attempt, and Murder
Moderate: Animal death, Death, Stalking, Murder, Colonisation, and Pandemic/Epidemic
Minor: Vomit
Nothing horribly gorey but there's still talk/moderate descriptions of lots of violence
