I am not into video games, but I really liked getting to know the gaming world. I didn’t know that designers could either make their own engine or use another games design. Also the friendships were dynamic and complex which I appreciated. I think that’s my favorite part of books is getting to know other peoples relationships in the story. 

Is it anti-feminist to not like Sadie? I felt like she always painted herself to be the victim in her relationship with Sam. It didn’t seem like Sam was ever trying to sabotage Sadie. He just wanted to make games with her. Sam could be cruel like when he told Marx that he’s an NPC. But I feel like Sadie accused Sam of things that weren’t true? I don’t know maybe the accusation of Sam putting her in a touch spot with Dov was true. But not necessarily all his fault either. Sadie never understood the pain that Sam went through with his foot. Maybe she was over it? Idk. With all this being said, it was easier to relate to Sadie than Sam. Sam’s story was harder to relate to because his experiences were different than mine.
