People who are in love but never lovers, this book describes the beauty and odd romance of friendship. There aren’t enough books about friendships. Sam and Sadie are childhood friends who start making a videogame together, but then their indie game spirals into a cult classic making Sam and Sadie one of the most respected game designers in the world. Zevin crafts a story that is both insanely fun and witty, yet heartbreaking. It is a beautiful and oftentimes raw look at platonic love, ambition, sacrifice, and grief. As a fan of video games and an even bigger fan of the people who make them, it shows games in such a creative and flattering light. By the end of the book, I was so mad that I couldn’t just get up and play most of the games they had made. Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow gave me such an intense book hangover. I cried because I didn’t want it to end and I will be thinking about it for years to come.
