I really enjoyed this book. I think giving wade an asshole phase once he got rich always made sense. It’s only realistic, bezos and musk style. But the challenges and experiences help him learn that his love for his friends and partner is far more important than his addiction to the internet and the oasis. The theme of mystery video game is carried over from the first book and I enjoyed the darker view we get into a disturbed Halliday’s mind. It is a good lesson for wade not to repeat the same mistakes that Halliday did. The plot twist of Anorack gaining AI consciousness was exciting and I loved the suspense of trying to defeat him! I hope they don’t butcher the movie like they did with RP1 but my hopes are low.

This book was good, but I have to say that the first one was better. It was a good plot, good characters and it ends well.
Moderate: Blood and Injury/Injury detail
