so-soI read this for a book club, and I was just not in the mood for a bleak, ambiguous, stream-of-consciousness dystopian novel right now. I think I need something more cheerful, like Stephen King.
pickI love old, well-read copies of books. This mass market copy is from 1989 and the 20th printing. It started tattering from dry rot while I was reading it. Loved this, but I will say I think the series is actually better. I have never said this about a screen adaptation, but this one. Love how the series builds from the book. Can‘t wait to keep watching!

pickI‘m not a gamer, so I wasn‘t sure I‘d enjoy Ready Player One, but I was quickly pulled into the richly imagined world of the OASIS. Ernest Cline brings the virtual universe to life with vivid detail and fast-paced storytelling. The 80s pop culture references added fun depth even if you‘re not a tech expert. A surprisingly engaging read that kept me hooked from start to finish. I‘d definitely recommend it—even to non-gamers like me!

But nothing is as it seems and it all unravels when the son discovers a colony of people living underground for generations, who will lose their home as the climate warms. Told from two perspectives of the above- and below-world, I enjoyed the ⬇️
