hoooooooooooollllyyyyyyyyyy this was one heck of a book
this book grabbed my heartstrings and made me FEEL
the characters were frustrating and flawed at times, but nevertheless, i felt myself root for them, i empathised deeply with them, and i felt my heart break when theirs broke.
the story was also very sad - sadder than i expected when marx died i was devastated, both at his death and at the repurcussions it would have on sadie and sam
i liked all the issues and ideas that gabrielle zevin explored in the book, and i also liked the interwoven scenes of game playthrough and how it aided the narrative flow. it was especially sweet to see how sadie and sam bonded over games.
perhaps the pacing felt a little slow sometimes, or a little repetitive, but
i thoroughly enjoyed this tragic tale of grief, loss, connection and ultimately, love.

"i love you."
"terribly."
