Audiobook 

This was a really fun book and an interesting look into a bleak future of forgetting all problems and escaping to virtual reality. The constant references to pop culture (of which there have to be thousands of) is really fun, though I cannot tell if the book's reliance on other media and stories takes away from it all, as the book is driven by this. Though even with this, the incorporation of other media is very creative and entertaining! I would very much recommend this, though I would be curious what someone with little pop culture knowledge would feel about it, please share your thoughts with me if this is you, thank you.
