Ready Player One

It's a book by Ernest Cline, and I suspect that if you are a gamer you will love it. I'm not, but I love it anyway.
I tried to link it on Amazon but it kept bringing up my personal page, so I guess you'll just have to google it if you're interested.

I quite liked it, but I suspect I would have gotten more out of it had I been around in the 80s. Its nostalgia is a little off the mark for my age.

Always looking for book recommendations, and as I'm quite familiar with the 1980's, I'll buy a copy. Thanks.

Read it. As mentioned, a particularly good read if you survived the 1980's. I loved all the gaming references, plus it has a decent story.

Wait, you read a book in just 13 days!?!
How is that possible?

LOL. I bought it right away for my Nook and read a bit each night. It reads quick. I'm normally a slow reader.
