Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin

This was my favorite read of 2022. It's an epic tale of friendship and love between video game enthusiasts and game designers. The characters are diverse and beautifully flawed and I loved them all. This was a new author for me and I'm a huge fan.
