You by Austin Grossman
2.0
I desperately wanted to love this book. It was sold as a novel of the same flavor as Ready Player One, which is so terribly inaccurate that I could pull my hair out. The only similarity is the fact that both discuss video games. The similarities end there. Where RPO was a work of spectacular genius, You failed to get me even remotely interested in the subject matter. I can see a small group of game designers and programmers getting a chubby over this novel but outside of that, I feel betrayed by the hype.
I'll admit that I didn't finish the book and perhaps the second half would have completely redeemed it but You failed to captivate me sufficiently to give a care.
On to the next one.
