Reviews with content warning for Gun violence - Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

"Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing."
-Macbeth

This book was so good in my opinion. I really enjoyed the story and I loved that most of it was set in the 90s and 00s so all the popular culture they mentioned I remembered from when I was a child.

The two main characters Sadie and Sam were childhood friends having met in hospital at around age 12 where they bonded playing video games.

Fast forward to their late teens/20s they both have an interest in creating a video game which they named Ichigo. Sam's roommate also helped with the game with money and producing it.

The book follows the characters through the trials and tribulations of working with your best friend, starting a company, artistic differences and personality clashes.

I would definitely recommend this book, I loved it 😊❤️

There was a lot that I really liked about this book. I read it really quickly for me, in just over a week, and this was because I found the plot addictive. I wanted to know what happened next, and although the characters weren’t always likeable, in my opinion, I rooted for them the whole way through. I liked how this book was truly about life, from birth to death, and all the messy bits in between. I liked the multiple character ‘perspective’, because we were able to see things from both Sam and Sadie’s perspectives, and I liked how thought-provoking some of the lines were at times. I thought that the characters were layered which I love, however I think the reason I didn’t find them likeable was that I didn’t see them grow that much. It’s not a 5 star for me because I feel as though the ending left a lot of the tensions unresolved, which is probably more of a personal preference rather than the fault of the writer or anything like that! Overall I did really enjoy reading this book, I thought it was quite easy to read despite it handling some sad and emotional issues! :)

This is the perfect book. I was so afraid to read it for so long because I was scared it wouldn't live up to the hype. But it was everything and more. All the characters are flawed in the most human way. Their decisions are sometimes frustrating but also understandable from their point of view. It's sweet, it's heartachingly devastating.
I read it so fast.
I wish for this book to find it's way in everyone's hands
