Our Infinite Fates by Laura Steven
4.25
emotional mysterious medium-paced
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

I found this book to be beautifully written, intriguing and powerful. I had this book on my TBR for awhile, but only felt motivated to read it once it arrived in a subscription box. 

I loved the entire concept. Fated lovers to kill each other in every life time? It was a mystery to me. Why? Why would you kill someone you loved, over and over again? As the answers unfolded and things became clear, I was surprised to find out the reason. 

The characters themselves fell a little flat to me, but their relationship was amazing. The complexity of it and what it meant to both of them. 

It was super neat to get to see different settings as we saw flashes to the other lives. And the fact that they come back differently with no rules for their gender, race or anything like that was also super interesting and it was great representation to read a story where they love each other, no matter what. They loved each other when they were both men, both women, men and women and the details of their physical bodies didn't matter at all. That message was beautiful to me, and the strength of their love. 

I'm unsure how I felt about the ending, but I really loved the book overall.
