One of the best books ive ever read, its honestly hard to put into words how incredible this book is.

If anyone asks me what this book is about, it will be so hard to explain, and thats what i love about it. Theres so much details and depth to this story which is incredible. I found myself not wanting to put the book down, and at the same time, i didnt want the story to end either.

I will say that the book at points can be overwhelming and sad, but even so, i was still captivated by it. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone, its an incredible story that should be read by everyone!

Yknow I’d give anything to relieve every second that I listened to this book. The prose is incredible and I fell in love with the writing, the characters and the plot from the start. Zevin has incredible takes on life, death, love and other things. This is a beautifully moving book and it put me past the point of tears. I just feel… I don’t know how to describe it. At peace, nostalgic, sad, inspired… maybe more all at the same time.

Excellent read. One of the best ever I would say. Incredibly detailed character development and interrogation. The themes of friendship and hard work were consistent throughout the various stages of the novel, like strings binding the whole story together. The symbolism through the novel is insane and brilliant. I’m obsessed with this book and can’t wait to read it again.

In a lot of ways, this was a great book. I want to play the games. The writing is good. The emotions felt very real. Marx, Dong Hyun, and Bong Cha were perfect and I loved them. But, Sadie and Sam were kind of awful. Dov was actually awful. And I don’t think I’ve ever had to look up more words in a book than in this one.
