Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow
by Gabrielle Zevin
DID NOT FINISH: 65%
This book was recommended by a friend and I got it through the library. I ran out of time on the library book, and I found myself not wanting to put a hold on it again. I read a synopsis of the rest of the book and I'm glad that I didn't. To me, the book read like a series of tropes strung together, paired with (alternately) unrealistically dense or pseudo-enlightened characters. I found the discussions of creativity somewhat enjoyable, but the author has an annoying tendency of overselling a point. I enjoy books that really create a setting, or explain characters well, but this book just took it too far; to the point where even some of the comma-separated lists that the author writes are ten or more examples long. Finally, this book really should come with a content warning; it was on my friend's kids high school reading list but includes: BDSM, Polyamory, LGBTQ issues, Suicide, and a great variety of other topics.
Graphic: Suicide, Car accident, Abortion, Suicide attempt
Moderate: Drug use, Emotional abuse, Sexual assault, Sexual content, Sexual violence, Suicidal thoughts, Toxic relationship, Death of parent, Toxic friendship
