4.0

i loved it and cried so many times! multiple pov’s spanning decades is always a hit for me

the ending just didn’t do it for me for some reason and somewhere along the line i also got reeeally annoyed at both sam and sadie. for these reasons i had to drop the rating with one star, even though i was thinking of five stars in the beginning of the book

I get the criticism that its only enjoyable if ur a gamer or make games, but that feels like a stupid approach lol like yeah i didnt get every  minor reference to game design but i enjoyed the book and i enjoyed the description of the games (even though i literally never game) and i enjoyed the characters and also i cried so

Glorious in every way

except that wierd abortion plot twist

Writing impeccable and diverse, broke my heart and rebuilt it, made me feel things I could never feel while still being safe. Thank you for that amazing time. Try not to read it in one sitting, the characters need to grow at their own pace

This book took me forever to get through. Most of the time I was bored or annoyed with the characters. There is a lot of violence and abuse that doesn’t seem to have a true purpose. The book felt like it was trying to be progressive given that it takes place in the early 1990s, but then had one of the main female characters in love and obsessed with a creepy, older, abusive, pos man. Not for me. 🤷🏽‍♀️
