3.0

A tale that follows friends through multiple coming-of-age stages over 25 years. 

Unique plot based around video games, which may put some people off, but like books, the games are stories and have sublime scenery that draw on Japanese, Korean, Jewish and American Culture. 

Clever, but another book where you want to bang the two leads’ heads together. The “in love but not lovers” trope is getting a little tedious. 

*Spoiler*
I found the first half cliche and starting to drag, but it was almost redeemed in the second half until Sadie’s closing monologue moaning about Gen Z.

I struggled a lot with this one. I bounced off the first chapter, told myself I didn't wait 4 months on a library hold to immediately DNF it, and made myself read the whole thing. To be perfectly honest, what kept me going was that this is the closest to a queerplatonic relationship I have seen in fiction, and I am a starved aro ace who is willing to eat any crumbs I can find. It wasn't until around the 70% mark that I was hooked. I strongly disliked our two main characters though.

I really wish we had some different content warnings - this book contains homophobic slurs, BDSM as a tool of abuse, and a student/professor relationship where both parties are adults.
