Ready Player Two by Ernest Cline

The sequel to Cline's hugely popular debut, Ready Player One. The book has received mixed reviews, with critics citing the story is far too similar to the original (both books contain an elaborate Easter egg hunt). I agree that the stories have a similar set-up, but RP2 is different and fresh enough to stand on its own. I thoroughly enjoyed the book, and would highly recommend it, both to fans of the original, and anyone who has even the tiniest bit of nerdiness in them. The book is chock full of 80's pop culture references (music, fashion, movies, video games). If you haven't read the original, I HIGHLY recommend reading it before this one, both for the many references and for the fact that it is an all around outstanding novel.
