It had an entertaining plot but through most of it I felt like I was missing out because all the 80's references were going straight over my head. Once I accepted this and started to appreciate the book on the plot and entertainment factor alone I enjoyed it more. However I don't think it'll make it to the re-read pile.

I first read this on 2015 and it became my favorite book. 5 years from then and ta-da, still my fave.
I read it in just a few days and I feel I've been with these characters and in this story for weeks, it's just so good (but not flawless: the cringey romance with Wade being an immature 'nice guy' and the Japanese stereotypes killed me.

Absolutely loved this book! Wil Wheaton as narrator made it that much better.
Would like to write more later when I have more time.

Wow! What a fantastic story! The characters were great, action was riveting, and who doesn’t love some 70s and 80s references? I’m not a huge video game fan, but I don’t think you have to be to love this book. Very smartly written.
