Six Degrees of Separation ~ From Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow to Books That Changed the World

#6Degrees of Separation:
from Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow to Books That Changed the World

#6Degrees is a monthly link-up hosted by Kate at Books Are My Favourite and Best. I love the idea. Thank you, Kate. See more about this challenge, its history, further books and how I found this here.

This month's prompt starts with Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow (Goodreads). Again, I have not read the starter book. But maybe, someone would like to read it, so here is the description:

"In this exhilarating novel, two friends--often in love, but never lovers--come together as creative partners in the world of video game design, where success brings them fame, joy, tragedy, duplicity, and, ultimately, a kind of immortality.

On a bitter-cold day, in the December of his junior year at Harvard, Sam Masur exits a subway car and sees, amid the hordes of people waiting on the platform, Sadie Green. He calls her name. For a moment, she pretends she hasn't heard him, but then, she turns, and a game begins: a legendary collaboration that will launch them to stardom. These friends, intimates since childhood, borrow money, beg favors, and, before even graduating college, they have created their first blockbuster, Ichigo. Overnight, the world is theirs. Not even twenty-five years old, Sam and Sadie are brilliant, successful, and rich, but these qualities won't protect them from their own creative ambitions or the betrayals of their hearts.

Spanning thirty years, from Cambridge, Massachusetts, to Venice Beach, California, and lands in between and far beyond, Gabrielle Zevin's Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow is a dazzling and intricately imagined novel that examines the multifarious nature of identity, disability, failure, the redemptive possibilities in play, and above all, our need to connect: to be loved and to love. Yes, it is a love story, but it is not one you have read before."

I don't think, I would like to read this book, even though it seems to be very much appreciated, but it's not the type of literature I enjoy.

But, I can use a word in the title and I always enjoy that. The starter word is, of course,
Tomorrow.

Unfortunately, there is no link between the first and the last book. One is a novel, the other one a non-fiction about books. But about a lot of books. Who knows whether "Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow" isn't going to change the world?
