I really didn’t like this book, and I feel like I’m missing something since it’s so popular. I found the dialogue awkward and forced, the timeline jumps confusing and boring, the frequent parenthetical exposition annoying and indulgent, and the characters unlikeable and shallow. I did read it all because I thought the parts about game play were fun to imagine, and some of the plot around the game development was interesting. I also thought there were a lot of anachronistic references and issues raised that felt like they were pandering to a modern audience.
