Finished reading: Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin 📚
When a book has this much hype, I usually avoid it because inevitably I get myself too hyped up and then am disappointed. But when people whose reading taste I admire recommend it… Well, that’s different. I was still a little unsure through section 2, because a couple of the character weren’t quite connecting for me. But that changed and I enjoyed the rest thoroughly. Great writing, real characters, hope and dismay and connection, the complexity of love, the importance of both knowing what you want and being able to let go of it. Also, video games!
Sven Dahlstrand I liked this one as well! Did you know you can actually play Emily Blaster over at Gabrielle’s site?
Writing Slowly given how long they’ve existed, isn’t it surprising so little fiction has been written about the process of making computer games? But I suppose a survey of all the jobs in fiction would reveal only a small subset of all the work out there.
Chad Kohalyk @sod This is amazing! Sharing with my book club. We really enjoyed this one.
