Ready Player One features a plot that borrows heavily from [b:Charlie and the Chocolate Factory|6310|Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (Charlie Bucket, #1)|Roald Dahl|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1309211401l/6310.SY75.jpg|2765786] and [b:Snow Crash|40651883|Snow Crash|Neal Stephenson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1589842551l/40651883.SX50.jpg|493634], wrapped around multiple laundry lists of '80s pop-culture references.

I was an '80s kids, so the pop culture element was fun, but that's all there is to it.

I will give it this, it was better than the movie!
