Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is an intricate literary fiction novel by Gabrielle Zevin that centers on old friends Sadie Green and Sam Masur and Marx Wantanabe, Sam’s college roommate. Sadie, Sam, and Marx create a gaming company together and face the complexities of love, relationships, and evolving life in this poignant, long story. I personally enjoyed the level of depth Sadie Green and Sam Masur contained.

Slacker by Gordon Korman follows Cameron Boxer who created a ‘lifestyle’ where all he does is gaming. He avoids homework, doesn’t join any clubs, and no one knows him besides his two best friends (basically, he’s a slacker). Until he starts a positive action club after almost burning down his home. The club wasn’t supposed to be something anyone could join, it was just supposed to be a distraction for his parents so that they would let him keep gaming.
