Spent the first day of winter break reading Ready Player Two from beginning to end. It's probably the worst of his three novels. Instead of Ready Player One's epic adventure going through various phases of twists and turns, Two is just one big phase that drags on and on and on. Two had 2/3 the pages of One but had a tenth of its content. What should have been major characters only get like 2 pages' worth of content on them, and the book's idea itself isn't what I'd call novel. I liked the ending though, but it was really predictable. The few subtle references I caught ("Don't spend it all in one place" and Norton the warden) were kind of fun too.
