Dov is the worst. I am angry that there were no consequences for him from anyone.

I enjoyed this book, I like the complexity of the characters and the various forms of attachment, friendship, love and partnership depicted. I’ve never read a book about video games before and found the descriptions of the game design very captivating. I read this very quickly for a bookclub discussion and liked exploring it with others after finishing. I think at times the author can be a little heavy handed with the allusions and some vocabulary choices took me out of the flow (kinda felt like words pulled from the thesaurus for the sake of it rather than adding value sometimes). Once I got over that and into the flow of the larger story I really enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed reading this. I have heard people say this book is too woke and what I say to that is the book is about you. The extreme version of your thoughts in action are represented in this book so make some queer friends , play some queer video game, listen to diverse and lgbtqia+ stories or stfu. That being said both lead characters PPPPPIIIIISSSSED me off at many moments!! COMUNUCATION PEOPLE!!! But that’s what made it good! The characters aren’t loveable, there over-intellectual dick-heads sometimes but people like that exist. Solid read!

I don’t really understand why this book is so loved. I mean, it wasn’t bad but it really wasn’t that good either? Somehow hollow dialogue and I didn’t really love the characters, they felt almost flat at times. The only likeable character
died near the end, and I thought ”Why should I even continue reading this?” And this is my own problem, but I dislike pregnancy tropes in books.
