The book titles are callbacks to the old video game convention of putting a message on the screen so that the players would know whose turn it was to take the controls. Thus, "Ready Player One" is a message to Player One to get ready to play.
Amazon lists the books as "Ready Player One Book 1" and "Ready Player One Book 2" for a reason, and they get that information straight from the publication pipeline. "Ready Player One" is not only the title of the first book, but the name of the series.
