As a gamer, and pop-culture lover, it hit all the right spots for me. None of the main characters are perfect, but you can see how their past traumas have shaped them.

This book has a lot of pain, and heartache, and characters who don't know how to communicate and don't ever really figure out how. It's important, I think, to be prepared for that going in. It's not a feel good book. It has some fantastic quotes about life, play, and relating to other humans. It is very clever at times. But I can't say I fully loved it. Or that it was exactly what I needed or was looking for. Despite that, I don't regret reading it. I don't think there will be a reread, though.
