This book is for… people who are not hell-bent on hating this sequel as a matter of principle. ⤐ Overall.The sad truth is, a lot of people went into Ready Player Two determined not to like it. You could tell by the updates they made long before they ever even touched the book and the whiny reviews they wrote after. If this is how you wanna go about reading unexpected sequels, don't read this book. Or any sequels at all. You'll be unable to appreciate it for what Ready Player Two is: a decent
GAME. FINALLY. OVER.For f*ck’s sake. That’s the phrase that repeats itself over and over in my Kindle notes as I was slogging my way through this soulless cash grab of a clusterf*ck.It’s been a while since I’ve been this irritated by a book. Time to rant.I got a huge kick out of its predecessor, Ready Player One, even if it often read like the reiteration of Wikipedia pages of the 1980s trivia. Yes, it was a trivia-laden wish fulfillment, but it appealed to our human instinct of rooting for an
Hello, everyone.Roll call time! Let’s make sure we’re all present:- me, the cynical and disappointed reviewer, equal parts dreading the angry comments to come and wizened and numb by the angry comments that have come before (here!)- other people who were genuinely disappointed by this book after really liking the first one- the lifeless incels who are sure to yell at me for being a woman on the internet who dares to have an opinion on something that’s For The Boys (definitely here - see comments...

Review posted on: https://books-are-a-girls-best-friend...Wil Wheaton is Back! And that my friends, made the geek in me one very Happy Girl! Another day in the Oasis, brings on another contest for Wade Watts and his friends. This time, it’s to find the “Seven Shards of the Siren’s Soul.”Time however, is of the essence. Most folks now get into the Oasis with new ONI headsets and unfortunately for them, Anorak, Halliday’s avatar has hacked the system such that, when their daily time limit for usi...
Me: Ready Player One doesn't need a sequel!Also Me: *Adds to Want to Read* *Mentally/Emotionally subscribes to updates about said sequel*
Really really good. Bit different to book 1, and I still didn't get a lot of the 80s references, but still very good and a fun read.
A quick spoiler-free word before I begin. I’m likely the only Blaine you know. It is not a common name. So as the unofficial gatekeeper of the Blaine Hall of Fame, I am here to tell you that the Hall only has four members: Blane from the movie Pretty in Pink, Blaine from Glee, Blain from the movie Predator (the self-described “goddamn sexual tyrannosaurus” who “ain’t got time to bleed,” two lines I promise you I used a lot in my teens), and Blaine the Australian surfer who was Barbie’s boyfriend...
"Poor widdle Wade", I say with extreme sarcasm. Not long after the end of Ready Player One, Wade is a multi billionaire, mostly holing up in his enormous mansion (so big that he hasn't even found all the bathrooms), spending twelve hours a day with the newest, bestest, most immersive virtual reality device that will ever be invented. And Wade has become bored, miserable, lonely, embittered, and cruel. Wade's best friends are out in the world doing real good, making a huge difference in the world...
I enjoyed the trip that READY PLAYER ONE took me on. The author transforms the sequel into a stinking number 2 of WOKEness.I hate propagandist uber left bullshit. We’ve suffered propaganda from the other side of the cultural divide from a clownishpresident who I have been working to defeat since day one. I dont need pinko crap pushed on me now, in an adventure novel full of virtue signaling and instructing all readers, including very young ones, that being a male or a female is ABSOLUTELY meani...
Where do I start with my review of Ready Player Two? When I first read Ready Player One almost 7 years ago, I was a big fan. It was fun, fresh, exciting and unlike anything I'd read before. It's a truly enthralling adventure story with loads of references to 80's pop culture and other 'nerd' stuff that, though I may not have had a vast knowledge of, I enjoyed.Ready Player Two follows pretty much the same arc to a tee. There's truly nothing new in this book, and if anything it soured my memor...
This was easily my biggest disappointment for the year. I thoroughly enjoyed Ready Player One and expected the sequel to at least be an entertaining re-immersion into the promising world of the Oasis. While it offered some interesting philosophical discussion, the majority of the book felt like a rushed plot with little setup and overweighted the importance of 80s references. In the first book these references offered a unique voice, but here they felt like forced cameos on a sitcom that’s lost
This Review ✍️ Blog 📖 Twitter 🐦 Instagram 📷This is gonna be a rant review because despite having low expectations, it still managed to disappoint me. Let me quote my friend Jonathan who said “Ooh, sounds like Player 2 was most definitely not ready.”I think book 1 was definitely a much better book despite me growing as a reader and a reviewer and having read the 2 books with 600 books in between. I don’t like it when series get extended, because let’s be honest as we all know it is usually just a...
Mr. Cline sat in front of his laptop and started thinking... how to make this book good? - People liked the quest... so let's do that.- But hey let's increase the stakes with some crazy plot. Doesn't matter if it's going to be messy.- And let's have the first 20% a wiki that recaps and tries to catch the reader up to the current events of where the last one ended. Doesn't matter if we have almost no present time dialogue, it’s a whole mess of info dumping right at the readers face.- To make the
Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called “Ready Player Two.”And get through it I did, with pleasure. I understand many readers have planted firmly in the no-way-no-how camp for this follow up, believing it either to be at best unnecessary and at worst a lazy cash grab. I guess I see those points, but I also see how one’s enjoyment of the novel depends largely on how well one relates to the themes of the quests Wade and crew face as they pursue a new unexpected
I’m so grumpy, whiny, upset right now! This is not about cleansing program I apply for 5 days ( no alcohol, no sweets, comfort food, I’m so close to beg someone just kill me now!) it’s the side effects of the book. Two years ago when I attend a conference about the importance of visual effects on AT&T shape and Ready Player One’s producers, digital artists, screenwriters, a few actors were the speakers. At the first time they told about a sequel of the movie was coming sooner but they waited fo...
Oh, the perils of reading a book that is a sequel to one I loved so much!Will it be as good?If it isn’t, how crushed will I be?Am I even giving it a fair chance going in since my expectations are already set so high?I read the author’s last book and didn’t care for it – was that the start of a downward trend and this is just the next step down?I am already seeing negative reviews because it wasn’t as good and a major disappointment, so how can I not go into it expecting the worst? Yes, all of th...
