so you’re telling me i’m supposed to be living in a world WITHOUT marx watanabe in it? despicablein all seriousness, this book touched my soul in a way a book hasn’t done in a while now. i haven’t had my heart ripped out of my chest, splattered on the ground, then somehow nursed back to battered health and stitched up neatly back in my body like that, ever in my life actually. sadie, sam, and marx are the lovable characters who i wish were real but still feel like real human beings i can call up at any moment. gabrielle sets us in worlds that are almost tangible to us, with stakes that are so high that they’re unnaturally real and at the same time genuine to society.
tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow is a story about love, loss, grief, and the courage to live and fight and keep moving forward. i love the world of games i was set in. i love cambridge and california, places i’ve never been to, but i feel like i can say i have because of gabrielle’s stunning prose. i love how she carefully represents disability, racism, sexism, immigration, and so much more hot button topics with grace. i will keep returning to this book whenever life feels hopeless, because the unfair games trio reminds me that life moves on despite everything, and the hardships are what make life worth living.
