I didn’t like this book although I listened to the whole thing so maybe I liked it more than I thought. The entire book was the two main characters thinking about themselves. The only external things that happened were related to building their business and one act of uniquely American violence. Seriously, get over yourselves.

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a heart-wrenching tale of souls bound by friendship and love throughout trials and tribulations and healing. The main characters are intricately and wonderfully written. When you think it can't get any more tragic, it somehow gets more tragic. I also appreciate its strange metacommentary on video games.
