This is easily the best book I've read this year; probably the best book I've read in the last five. It's so strange to see so many pieces from my own adolescence arranged in such a heartbreaking fashion. Of course a person whose own life was defined by one single decision would create a game with virtually unlimited decisions for other lonely, lost people. I wish I could write a more cogent review, but frankly, I'm still kind of a blubbering mess.
