It was a complex story about friendship and life, how you grow apart and come together: over smaller fights, misunderstandings and just life itself.
I found myself crying from the second to last section of the book to the end.
Simultaneously was a coming of age story, rom com and drama. A surprisingly deep story, not expected from the short description provided by StoryGraph-and I loved every second of it.

I haven't read a book like this in years. One the evokes the human condition on such a level that will make any reader feel every emotion while reading this book.
I cried, laughed, and yelled while reading Zevin's work. It broke me and put me back together. I loved this book so much.
The fact that there was such wonderful representation ,Jewish, disabled and queer made me love parts of this book even more.
It was so much more than a book about game developing. It was about love, friendships, parents and grief.

I've never read an omniscient narrator book where I've felt so deeply for multiple characters; so much so that when they're in conflict, I root for each and see the flaws in each. I love that this is a story about love, beyond just romantic love. I love how the main characters don't just inevitably end up together, yet they fight for each other, care for each other, and question their own worthiness to accept the love of the other. I appreciate the queer characters. It normalizes it, speaks to the challenges, but doesn't consume the central plot of the book. The NPC chapter was definitely my favorite. Dinged it's final score because I feel the ending didn't close as smoothly as I had hoped. Still, one of the best books I've read this year.Moderate: Gun violence, Adult/minor relationship, Sexual harassment, and Toxic relationship
