It’s rare to find a story with such REAL characters. Everyone makes mistakes, sometimes do fucked up and selfish acts, but at the of the day I understand everyone’s perspective even when they’re not right or wrong.
Overall I found Sadie to be rather underdeveloped in comparison to Sam. I also found her storyline with Dov to be really boring and cliche and just overall unnecessary to the story.

The book is incredibly boring. You basically just watch them make game after game after game with varying degrees of success, building their company from the ground up.
Sam was sympathetic at first but is kind of a jerk. Sadie is OK. She's kind of flat and I didn't really connect with her.
The voice of the book is strange and narrative. It has that literary feel, but the book head hops a lot. It's almost jarring to get used to such a fluid perspective.
Moderate: Murder, Mass/school shootings, and Emotional abuse
