The first book I've read in a long time that slowed down time while I was reading it.

OUCH. 

My only complaint was how little we got from Sadie during the last quarter of the book. But now that I write this maybe that was fully intentional. We would get Sam’s side of the story often when he was really going through it, so I was waiting for Sadie’s side to come and it never did. I could be wrong though and maybe her side wasn’t necessary.

There is mention of an animal injury (possibly unintentionally caused by a person). The animal survives, recovers, and thrives. Can easily skip over the paragraph that discusses the injury to get to the happier times.

challenging emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective slow-paced

4.5

The characters are devastatingly real and flawed. They’re not always likeable and that’s precisely why I kept reading. They felt real and I needed to see how these very real people handled trauma, love, work and friendship throughout their lives. It is extremely relatable. 

Loved seeing the diverse representation- biracial, disable, asexual characters. It felt like real life.

There are some serious trigger warnings so just be aware! 

Overall, I don’t think I can read this again for along time but it will definitely haunt me forever. Great book. 

Loved the world of building video games- was very accessible for non-gamers.

Overall good and interesting story, spanning a handful of characters along their college/young adult lives. Pacing overall was good, spots towards the middle/end began to loose interest- mixed feelings about major details towards the end, but overall good story. Well articulated characters that you’ll love most of the time, but hate sometimes (except Marx and Sam’s grandparents, they’re always good)
