This one does sound fun with the focus on gaming.Lolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14284689418552571180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7886414732479211267.post-86600169858438420242017-04-13T08:12:55.260-04:002017-04-13T08:12:55.260-04:00This cuteness!

That cover just screams geeky goodness and I can appreciate any book that takes on the gamergate trolls, and adds a diverse love story to boot!Verushkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08640500646511533020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7886414732479211267.post-91594186178541482972017-04-12T23:20:13.382-04:002017-04-12T23:20:13.382-04:00Nice review!

And of course #gamergate and all that is so ridiculous. This sounds like a great book!

Glad you liked this book. I am going to share it with some people I know who are gamers that will probably really enjoy it!

Its one that catches your eye immediately, which can be so important to get people interested in that first point of contact. <br /><br />Like you, I don't game, but I have heard some horror stories about gamergate, as well as the online gaming community in general. It sucks that it can be so harmful for anyone that isn't a cis straight white man. <br /><br />I think books that explore identity without necessarily giving the character a label do have their place in the bookish world. Some people don't want labels, and others just can't find one that fits them. That doesn't take away from their identity, though. <br /><br />I'm glad you liked this one, Lauren! And lovely review :)Chiara @ Books for a Delicate Eternityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04181153932836441611noreply@blogger.com
