I thoroughly enjoyed this book and understand why there is such a wait for it at the library. It's nostalgic, it's complicated, it's emotional, realistic and engaging. It's not all happy and it's not all sad. Hooked from the start to the end.

This book was just so dark and negative. It just really made it hard to read. No one's life can possibly be this bad. I just wanted one of the two main characters to speak about something in a positive light. The video game theme was... Interesting if you're a major gamer. This was a friend recommendation and not something I probably would have picked up on my own choosing.
