This book was sweeping, thoughtful, and so fun despite tackling difficult topics. The writing was superb if a bit pretentious (though that was definitely the point I think) and the characters were great. My only complaints are that it was a bit long and the ending wasn’t completely satisfying to me for some reason, but I fell in love with this book basically immediately.
"'What is a game?' Marx said. "It's tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow. It's the possibility of infinite rebirth, infinite redemption. The idea that if you keep playing, you could win. No loss is permanent, because nothing is permanent, ever."
