Let's end this week on a fun note. This book has gotten a lot of hype this year due to the movie adaptation that came out in the spring. Like many other book to movie adaptations, the book is way better than the film. So if you saw the film, and want to read the book, prepare for a slightly different weave to this nerdy, fun, cheer-on-the-protagonist, popcorn tale. This book was a super quick read, as Ernest Cline does a great job of ending chapters with cliff hangers and planning a story out to entice you throughout its various stages. If you are looking for a fun book to read on the beach or to mentally break from your long days of analytical work, then I suggest this great ride through his not-so-out-of-reach VR world.
