this was a challenging read. dense and term-heavy i caught a few of the references but felt that it would be better enjoyed by a real gamer. regardless, this was incredibly well written, with nuanced characters and struggles. it wasn’t what i was expecting, and maybe that was for the better?
SPOILERS
it presents itself as an incredibly slow burning romance between sadie and sam and ultimately results in.. not that? slow burning friendship (?) i enjoyed the acknowledgement that not all love is romantic and that there are things more important than romance, but still found the change in tone resulting from marx’s death to be really hard to read. it felt like the plot derailed a little bit, emphasizing the need for that third person in sadie/sam’s relationship, especially marx. feeling conflicted over this. bumping it a bit bc im realizing how conflicted i really feel lol

I'll be honest, I did not go into this book with a lot of optimism. I don't do well with (sort of) contemporary to begin with and secondarily it was hyped by people who's tastes don't generally cross with my own. But I always try and do my best to read the books chosen by my bookclub, because I've found some surprising favorites over the years. 

Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a love story, but not. It is also a historical fiction novel (though I'm sure that statement is inflammatory to the rest of my generation that is short-circuiting as I call the 90s "historical") but also not because although it's mainly 90s-early 00s, with some 80s, it covers things within the last decade as well. I'm still not entirely sure what the main point of the book was. 

(WIP)

I had no idea what to expect when I decided to get Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow on my Libby app. Honestly, had I known it was about video game producers I may have skipped it. But I can say that I am so happy that I read this book.  

It was the perfect combination of smart, emotional and uplifting. The characters are flawed but whole, their lives are complicated as are their relationships. The shifting timeline was done flawlessly. It felt like no time was passing at all because I was so wholly immersed in the experience. 

I can’t see what the flaws are… I wish there was maybe a bit more change in their characters as time went on. I understand Sam was unchangeable and that Sadie was complicated and dont get me wrong, I love full circle moments, but there was just maybe something slightly lacking that makes it a 4.5 rather than a 5. 

Honestly an amazing book and I will recommend it to so many people!
