Ready Player One Review

Image
Hello guys and today I’m here to review Ready Player One by Earnest Cline, a book about video games,  virtual reality, and 80s references. It's the year 2044, and the real world is an ugly place. Like most of humanity, Wade Watts escapes his grim surroundings by spending his waking hours jacked into the OASIS, a sprawling virtual utopia that lets you be anything you want to be, a place where you can live and play and fall in love on any of ten thousand planets. And like most of humanity, Wade dreams of being the one to discover the ultimate lottery ticket that lies concealed within this virtual world. For somewhere inside this giant networked playground, OASIS creator James Halliday has hidden a series of fiendish puzzles that will yield massive fortune — and remarkable power — to whoever can unlock them. For years, millions have struggled fruitlessly to attain this prize, knowing only that Halliday's riddles are based in the pop culture he loved — that of the late t...

Sunday Post 8/3

Hello and today I’m here with Sunday Post, a weekly meme hosted by Kimba @ Caffeinated Book Reviewer. On the Blog Well I’ve been a bad little blogger these past weeks so this section is kind of empty, but you will soon understand why… And worry no more, I am back! :) On YouTube The same goes for this section… but I did post a video about my new bookshelf kind of recently (you can find it HERE ) so keep your eyes peeled for a post on the blog about my new bookshelf! Outside the Interwebs Here’s where things get a little complicated… So, as you can probably tell, I’ve been away from the blog for a while and I have a few reasons why… First reason, Rookie camp… Now Rookie Camp is a thing at my school for students new to Band, and since it’s my first year on color guard, I had to go. Second reason, Band camp… Band camp was the week after rookie camp (thus explaining why I was gone for two weeks) and was very tiring… Reason number three, school is starting soon. As some of...

The 5th Wave Review

Image
Hey guys and today I’m here to review The 5 th Wave by Rick Yancey, a book about aliens, apocalypse and death… After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one. Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hope for rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up. – goodreads.com summery Rating I would recommend this book for fans of the SCI-FI or apocalyptic genres. This book has had so much hype surrounding...
