I'm not usually one for contemporary/literary novels but I enjoyed this one.
The writing was smart and crisp. It also invoked nostalgia for me, for the games I've played and the childhood I have. I didn't know much about early game development so that was fun to learn.
All the characters have their flaws, but not in a way that makes them truly awful. I think Zevin does justice to how messy our relationships can be.
She also does justice to showcasing the experiences of people who might have our class systems stacked against them.
