This is a beautiful book I’d recommend to anyone, with a label that says “read at your own risk of crying” because you will fall in love and it will hurt.

I think this might be one of my least favorite books ever. I have loved so much of Zevin's work this one caught me so off guard. I don't understand the hype and how none gamers could slog through this. I am a gamer and I struggled. The book is pretentious. The characters are awful. There is no plot to speak of. No. No. No.

I enjoyed reading the first half of this book but the second half was slow and long. I didn’t understand where the book was going and it felt like I was waiting for something to happen, but it never came. There were also parts in the second half that didn’t make sense why they were written and I would have preferred more story line in the second half, than random ‘fictitious’ characters/stories.

This book was certainly worth the hype. Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow is such a beautiful book. It covers such a wide range of themes and topics that I’m honestly not even sure what to say. The characters all felt incredibly real and Gabrielle Zevin did such a fantastic job delivering the complexities of their relationships with one another. I would recommend this book to people who love games, people who feel their ambitions are outrunning them, and people who love their friends.
