Listened to the audiobook with my husband during a road trip. I loved it just as much the second time around (his first time). I can't recommend this book enough.

Loved this on audio! Really enjoyable and felt relevant. Clever to combine 80s trivia and futuristic virtual reality worlds. Can't wait for the Spielberg movie in 2018
