Ready Player One!

[Kristina]

This is our January book! We're kicking off the year with this fun and exciting book that comes highly recommended. I hope you guys like it (and next month we'll definitely have a poll, sorry everything exploded this month).

Discussion threads are coming soon - in the mean time, go pick up a copy of the book!

[Emm]

I already read this in a bookclub during 2014, but it was the best book I read last year so I might join in and re-read it! c:

I just wanted to give everyone a heads up that the Kindle edition of Ready Player One is only $2.50.

That is GREAT to know!

[Elizabeth]

This is so cool, I run the book club for IGGPPC on here, and I'm already reading it this month for a reading challenge we're doing this year. :) I'll have to post my thoughts on here, too! I'm about 30 pages in already and really liking it so far. Wade is a pretty interesting character.

[Kitt]

I literally bought that book yesterday before I saw this!

[Mary]

I got it from the library so I'm ready to go as soon as I finally have a moment when I'm not doing a million other things.

[Maddison]

Just got my kindle copy which will be perfect for reading on the bus to and from campus. :)

[Brianna]

I had read this book a couple years ago on a recommendation from a friend and LOVED it. I'd be happy to revisit the story! I recommend to lots of people so I'm excited!

[Denise]

I have had this book recommended to me so many times, and it's on my 2015 book challenge, so I'm excited to see it here! Maybe I'll finally read it ;)

[Alice]

Woo Hoo! I'm pumped! I picked it up from the library today. :)

[Abby]

I've wanted to read this for a long long time. I am SO excited!!

[Rachel]

I read a book a long time ago with a similar premise that I enjoyed, so I am looking forward to reading this one. I am also excited, because this will be the first book that I am able to read along with the book club. I am so glad to be reading regularly again.

[Arturo]

That book is amazing!!! Best book for 2014. I'm glad it's gaining popularity. Although I still have 80 pages left to read from it. I don't want to end it because it's that good, but I'll guess I'll have to for is month! :'(

[Hannah]

I've heard so many great things about this book from booktubers/friends so I'm pretty excited to start reading! :)

Just bought it so thanks for the heads up! :)

[Cate]

Argh, I already have to read an uber long book for another book club in January, so I was planning on focusing only on that.. But I really want to read Ready Player One too! Hopefully I'll manage to go through it quickly so then I can move on to the other one.

[Abby]

Hoping to order this book soon!

[Jenna]

Ready Player One is a fantastic read and is probably my current favorite book! I just reread it for a second time a few months ago.

[Jenny]

Picking up this book from the library tomorrow. Can't wait to start it!

[Kayla Rayne]

I read this last year and it was hands down the best book of 2014! I adored this book and will be rereading it. It was so amazing.

[Rachel]

I might have just sat down and read this book in one sitting. It's a possibility that just happened. I loved it. So excited to discuss it!

Do it! Do it! (This is me encouraging you to read one of the most awesome books ever!)

[Monique]

Currently up to chapter 10 and this book is so much more amazing than I imagined! Not what I normally go for so was pleasantly surprised to find how much I am enjoying it!
Cannot wait to start discussing!!

[Mat]

Bought this today on a mission! Then had insta-regret! Have little money and even less time! Haha oh well :)

[Monique]

Just finished! All I can say is I thoroughly enjoyed that! Cannot wait to begin discussion!!!

[Kristina]

I am only 3 chapters in but I am LOVING it so far.

[Joel]

I will try to get the book by the end of this week if I can. Can't wait to start reading it!

[Alexandre]

I read it a few years ago. It ruined my whole mid-terms schedule. Yes, it's THAT good.

And when I saw it in spanish at my local bookstore the "I already have that book in english. I don't think I should..." lasted like half a second before a bought it and read it from cover to cover in a single day.

[Kristen]

The audio book is narrated by Wil Wheaton. Even if you've already read it, that's worth listening to.

[Ashley]

I'm definitely joining this one, and not just because I already owned the book. I'm excited to re-read it, it's been awhile. Hopefully not too late to the party, but crazy work was getting in the way.

[Elizabeth]

I finished this last night, and it was so. good. I really enjoyed the ending, and I kind of wish we got to see the characters 30 years after the book. All in all, a really great book about society, technology, and growing up, with some awesome characters and interesting pop culture tid bits.

[Tyler-rose]

Would love to read this book but haven't gotten round to buying it yet!! Had to buy £50 worth of books for University :( so sadly no book buying for me this month!

[Hanna]

I hadn't even read this when I bought this book at barnes this weekend.

[Hanna]

Sadly I probably won't get this one read before the month is over, but I'll try!

[Joel]

Just got the book from the library and finished The Night Circus. I'm going to read it next. Should be done within the next few days.

The Night Circus, love that one! Soooo good.

[Tamara]

Ready Player One is one of my favorites! Such a good book. I hope everyone is enjoying it.

Same here! I read it last year. It was an adventure! :)
I might check out the discussion here.

Slightly out of topic but Ernest Cline is releasing a new book this year (Armada)!

[Elizabeth]

Don't know if you guys have heard, but Cline 's also releasing a sequel to Ready Player One!

So I read this book in the middle of January, yet I did not participate in the threads here. I think I like talking about the book once it's read, but I kinda wish I had joined in as well. Overall I loved the book! It was truly hard to put down. I was not sure what I was expecting but it was more than I thought it would be. So great! If anyone is interested I did a review of the book here: http://youtu.be/uOXDqBmgZ98
It's not in depth at all, mostly for people who have not read it, but perhaps you can comment with suggestions on how to make my book reviews better (it's the second one I've ever done)
This is a great community and maybe next time I'll remember to join in on the discussion more!

[Kristin]

I wasn't quite sure where to post this, but I just read that Ernest Cline announced his new book!
