The three of them should’ve been locking lips and hunching all together and there would’ve been less conflict. They were all made for each other. Down with monogamy!

I am so glad I took the time to read this, and I am kind of sad that I won't get to experience it for the first time again.

This is the story of Sam and Sadie, who meet in hospital as kids and start playing games together. Eventually they decide to start making games together.

This is the story about the games they make, but more importantly their lives together and apart.

The characters that Zevin has created feel so realistic and like they are actual people and the games she has made are incredible - I would absolutely love to play one of them for myself (and will just have to do with playing Stardew Valley for now)

This book is hyped up a lot, but I would recommend picking this one up, even if you think it might be overhyped. I am so glad I finally read this.

As both a reader and a gamer, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow was everything I hoped for and more. It truly lives up to the hype and deserves every bit of recognition it's received. Gabrielle Zevin’s writing is nothing short of incredible. The way she crafts the characters’ growth over time is mesmerizing—so vivid and nuanced that I could actually see them aging and changing. I felt as though I was right there with them, watching their lives unfold, and that connection made it hard to turn the final page.

The book is filled with memorable quotes and beautiful moments that are both touching and profound. The emotional depth was stunning, and I found myself tearing up multiple times. By the end, I was emotional not because of any specific event, but because I had to say goodbye to characters I had grown with, and that was unexpectedly hard. Zevin’s writing made me feel like I had lived a part of their lives, and it's rare to find a story that captures that so well. This book is truly special, and I can easily imagine it being adapted into a movie or series because it played out so vividly in my mind.

If you're a lover of stories that make you feel deeply and immerse you in another world, this one is a must-read. It left a lasting impact on me, and I’m sure it will for many others too.

I wish I had read the content warnings before reading, as some parts of the book were quite intense. I liked the structure of the book, particularly at the beginning when the reader gets glimpses into the future of the characters. I also liked getting a look into the creative process of the video games and how the characters careers developed. However, I found the book depressing as many bad things happen to the characters over the course of the book, many of these I felt lacked closure or enough discussion for it to be meaningful or hopeful, it was just too harsh. The characters are chronically mean to each other and although there are moments of positive interactions, these are overshadowed by the many negative things that happen.

I found the progression of Sadie's career especially depressing, while it may be common for a women's work to be attributed to male collaborators, this gave a bleak perspective on what it is like to be a woman in a male-dominated field. I also didn't like that her love life was so tied to her career, this made her character seem flat and played into the idea that men can't see women as equal colleagues and there will always be romantic undercurrents in the workplace.

Marx seems to be one of the most virtuous characters in the book, and he is punished for this by being killed off, adding to the depressing feel of the book.
