i want to cry. i want to hug everyone. my faith in humanity is restored. i want to die. i'm in tears. i'm so in love with everyone and everything. i'm more in love with books than i've ever been. i honest to god don't see how i'm supposed to pick up another book after this. i want to create until my hands fall off. life is unfair. life is incredible. i'm losing my mind. no one gets me. sam masur is literally me.

other than that:

i fucking miss marx and i honestly think i grieved him more than sam and sadie did. and here come my only complaints about the book: i wanted more of sam and marx's friendship, i half-wish the romance between marx and sadie hadn't happened, i know the book is focused on sam and sadie but can we please talk more about marx watanabe's beautifully amazing and enormous heart and soul. god i feel like i lost my best friend this is horrendous this book fucking destroyed me

The faux biography Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin astounds at every possible juncture. Centring a pair of marginalized video game developers and their rise to fame, her book delves deep into the psyche of both major characters. She plots their success at forming their game company Unfair Games, their fights (creative and personal), the consequences of their success, their separation and their reunion. Every character leaps off the page and demands to be a player, not an NPC, and the characters' pasts heavily influence their development and their actions. I have never read a book so enthralling, so personal, or so realistic. I eagerly await more from Zevin and her incredible mind!
