This is officially one of my favorite books I've ever read. My husband and I chose to listen to this book on Audible, narrated by Will Wheaton, and it was an excellent decision because it truly made the book that much more entertaining. It was filled with fantastic 80's references, comedic moments that made our sides hurt from laughing, adventure that kept us on the edge of our seats, and I never wanted it to end - yet I was also desperate to know how it ended from the moment it began. There were some seriously clever plot twists as well! If you enjoy action, sci-fi, the 1980's, video games, movie trivia, and tales of best friends and lovers, you'll definitely appreciate this book. My only recommendation: don't watch the movie after reading. We did so and were greatly disappointed with how drastically different it was, with only minor references to the book itself. Overall, I would definitely read this again and again!
