THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING PHENOMENON
This is the story of Sam and Sadie. It's not a romance, but it is about love.
When Sam catches sight of Sadie at a crowded train station one morning he is catapulted straight back to childhood, and the hours they spent immersed in playing games.
Their spark is instantly reignited and sets off a creative collaboration that will make them superstars. It is the 90s, and anything is possible.
What comes next is a decades-long tale of friendship and rivalry, fame and art, betrayal and tragedy, perfect worlds and imperfect ones. And, above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love.

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
An ambitious story about two friends caught in the push and pull of creative passion, Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is an exhilarating novel about collaboration. Sam Masur and Sadie Green bonded over video games when they met as children, and craft a hit game together after reconnecting in college. Their quippy rapport rings emotionally true, which means that readers don’t need to be gamers to appreciate the pair’s three-decade journey together. Author Gabrielle Zevin also chronicles the evolving gaming industry, with plenty of witty references along the way. A must-read for fans of both The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay and TV’s Halt and Catch Fire, this is a warm look at the puzzle-like aspects of friendship and love.
Customer Reviews
Life is not a game
Cannot think of a book set up in the gaming world before this one. Very original. The most impressive factor of this story is how well reality is tangled with the gaming world even if dramatic life events are such a contrast with the elements of most games. I liked learning with more depth what it means create a game and how much of personal life is dedicated to its success.
Audiobook read by AI?
I don’t know if the audiobook was actually read by AI or just someone with absolutely no expression or intonation. Either way, Siri would have done a better job
Tedious
I really don’t know why this is so popular.
