Ready Player Sleep...

Sleep beckons, but before I drift off...

Three days ago I watched an interview on Boing Boing with Ernest Cline - Austin resident, screenwriter (Fanboys) and recently published novelist. The interview was about his new novel, Ready Player One.

Two days ago I picked up (a signed copy no less) at Book People. It is now 4:23am and I just finished reading it. So let's see, finished the entire thing in a day and a half??? I would like to stress that I didn't leave work until after 2am last night, came home to read until 4am, went back to work at 11am, left work at 3pm and have pretty much not stopped reading since then (except for a short jaunt over to the East Side ShowRoom for a drink with recently transplanted Seattleite, Ryan). Oh, and I've been sick for 5 days, this cough just won't give up. Argh!

So yeah, this novel is some serious fun.

Thanks Ernie. I needed that.
