I really liked this book. It had adventure and pop-culture references with explanations (cuz I had no clue what he was talking about). It was just a really good read. I liked the main character, Wade and watching him interact with the OASIS world. It was a really cool concept, and not something that is too far-fetched. I really liked the idea of using a virtual world to create a quest for a Holy Grail-type thing. This was a really enjoyable read where you want to know what happens next. The other characters were okay. I think due to the massiveness of this world, and getting to know that aspect, you don't really get to know them that well. They almost serve as chess pieces that need to be there just so the story is completely ridiculous. Other than that, Ready Player One was awesome, amazing and now I want to listen to it on audiobook.
