Haven’t read something like this in a while, a deep dive on the complex dynamics between characters. We read as the characters grow up, and how their relationships evolve. Most of the characters are deeply flawed, but I think that was the point. The author’s obviously passionate about games and worldbuilding, and it was fun to dive into this even as someone who doesn’t play games. Heartbreaking but hopeful and resonant, this book’s has a thoughtful take on life, baggage, and why we play games.

From reading this book, I was inspired by the process of creation. The characters felt real to me and I cared about what they went through.

I loved this book.  It was a fascinating blend of character and plot.  I'm not a gamer, but I found the creation of the games so interesting.
