Armada

“Too much ‘young-adult' for my taste; most of the time, it felt even child-like given the simplicity of the writing and story.

The setting and nostalgia trip are right up Ernest Cline's alley, but this time, he may have overdone it without tangible results at the ending.

Also, the inclusion of angsty teenagers and insta-love (I rest my case here).

In conclusion about the book:

- It's a so-so book, perhaps hyped by the success of Ready Player One.
- My recommendation: Go read Ready Player One (again if that's the case) instead of Armada.
- Consider subscribing and listening to the ‘Raid the Arcade' playlist on Spotify (or create your own based on the cassette tape image at the end of the book).”
