I am in between a 3 and 4 star with this book. I'm not a gamer so I wasn't initially drawn to this book. But after so many people reviewed it saying you don't need to be a gamer to enjoy this book I had to find out what the rave was all about.
I did like this book. The first part of the book I loved. The relationship between Sadie and Sam was really intriguing. I was completely drawn in (even though I didn't know half of the gaming stuff). In the second part there were a few chapters that drew o ...more

A story of love, life, loss and forgiveness. I play video games a lot so I appreciated the origins on how they are made and how much passion goes into making them. Sadie was a character that I had a hard time liking, often feeling frustrated and annoyed by her character. Marx however was my favorite character and wish his story was different. Overall I enjoyed the story and found the ending satisfying.

Thanks to Libro.FM for letting me review this ARC audiobook.
This is a friendship saga that spans 30 years. They are not always the best of friends, but they know each other like they know themselves, and love each other, even when they don't like each other. It's a story of trauma, grief, and video games.

This book is between 4 & 4.5 stars for me. It is heavy on the video game world, but don't let that deter you from reading it. It is a wonderful story with wonderful characters that I will be thinking about for quite some time. What kept me from giving it 5 stars is that it got a wee bit too bogged down in some of the video game/gaming descriptions and that also that I was a wee bit frustrated with Sadie. Definitely a good read!
