I loved the author’s writing style! The characters were interesting and their character arcs were beautifully written.

I really really really liked this book. I learned so much about video game creation and production, and was impressed by the creativity of the different games made throughout the book. The different Anna Lee's mentioned in various chapters was a thought-provoking parallel to the different lives or simulations one could live in a video game, all by making a different choice than previous. I enjoyed the friendship trio's dynamic and balance they brought to each other, and I found the passion and love they had for video games to be a interesting central point for them to always come back to. I did not like or vibe with Sam's character much, I felt he was pessimistic and woe-is-me attitude when he could've done something but didn't, however I loved Sadie and Marx, Zoe, and Sam's grandparents. I also laughed a lot and liked the time jumping around for once.

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.

5.0

I'm giving this book a reluctant five stars simply beucase I absolutely adore it despite its noticeable flaws. It was written so well, it's feels so good to read like I'm drinking warm soup. The vibes were extremely comforting and rich. Forgiving some unsatisfactory things like lacking plot (which is super ture to life) but in a way where I didn't feel as engaged around the 50-60% as well as the romantic relationships feeling rather weak and shallow and at one point including straight up physical and sexual abuse and the guy who did it is just chilling around for the whole book and they mention it for a couple one-off jokes. But despite those few things, this story is just so admirable and charming, yet terribly heart aching and depressing, all while being uplifting and comforting, as well as Introspective and transforming. Long story short, I fucking loved this book. And I want to play some games.
