Ready Player One (Media Tie-In)
by Ernest Cline

It’s 2045 and the world is a very different place.… Most people spend their days in the virtual universe of OASIS. When James Halliday, the founder of the OASIS, dies, his will reveals that he created a challenge within his video game world—and the winner will inherit his fortune and control of the OASIS.

Wade Watts (a.k.a. Parzival) goes on an exploration through the OASIS, trying to complete the three challenges that will ultimately allow him to win the game and the inheritance. But he isn’t the only one trying to win…and the IOIs won’t hesitate to crush anybody who gets in their way.

This book will take you on an adventure through its virtual reality world, in which you feel like you’re living in the video game that Halliday created. Filled with 80s nostalgia references and danger at every turn, I could not put this book down and you won’t want to either!

After you've binged the book check out the movie (the book was obviously better).

Ready Player One (Media Tie-In)
Ernest Cline

The bestselling cult classic—now a major motion picture directed by Steven Spielberg. In the year 2045, reality is an ugly place. The only time teenage Wade Watts really feels alive is when he’s jacked into the virtual utopia known as the OASIS. Wade’s devoted his life to studying the puzzles hidden within this world’s digital confines—puzzles that are based on their creator’s obsession with the pop culture of decades past and that promise massive power and fortune to whoever can unlock them. But when Wade stumbles upon the first clue, he finds himself beset by players willing to kill to take this ultimate prize. The race is on, and if Wade’s going to survive, he’ll have to win—and confront the real world he’s always been so desperate to escape.

Her Pretty Face
by Robyn Harding

Fans of the HBO show Big Little Lies will love Her Pretty Face.

Frances Metcalfe is a stay-at-home mom who is struggling with her troubled son. But when he gets into the elite Forrester Academy, she thinks that things will start to change. Frances is insecure, and lonely, and desperate to fit into Forrester’s world. But after her son is involved in a disturbing incident at the school, the kids and other parents start to ostracize the Metcalfes.

Enter Kate Randolph…Kate is everything Frances is not: beautiful, wealthy, powerful, and confident. As the two bond over their disdain of the Forrester snobs and the fierce love they have for their sons, a shocking secret threatens to tear them apart.

Because one of these women is not who she seems. Her real name is Amber Kunik. And she’s a murderer.

You
by Caroline Kepnes

We live in a world where we post nearly everything we do online—what we’re eating, where we’re heading on vacation, and more. In a world obsessed with posting everything to the 'gram, sometimes we need to be a little more careful with our privacy settings.

Joe Goldberg is infatuated with Guinevere Beck…after she stops into the bookstore where he works; he looks her up online and discovers everything he can about her. He becomes obsessed…and that obsession turns dangerous—he will do anything to be a part of her life.

Read the book and then check out the series on Netflix (previously on Lifetime)! If you can’t get enough, check out all the books that are mentioned in the series.

NOW A HIT NETFLIX SERIES
A NEW YORK TIMES AND USA TODAY BESTSELLER

“Hypnotic and scary.” —Stephen King

“I am riveted, aghast, aroused, you name it. The rare instance when prose and plot are equally delicious.” —Lena Dunham

From debut author Caroline Kepnes comes You, one of Suspense Magazine’s Best Books of the Year, and a brilliant and terrifying novel for the social media age.

When a beautiful, aspiring writer strides into the East Village bookstore where Joe Goldberg works, he does what anyone would do: he Googles the name on her credit card.

There is only one Guinevere Beck in New York City. She has a public Facebook account and Tweets incessantly, telling Joe everything he needs to know: she is simply Beck to her friends, she went to Brown University, she lives on Bank Street, and she’ll be at a bar in Brooklyn tonight—the perfect place for a “chance” meeting.

As Joe invisibly and obsessively takes control of Beck’s life, he orchestrates a series of events to ensure Beck finds herself in his waiting arms. Moving from stalker to boyfriend, Joe transforms himself into Beck’s perfect man, all while quietly removing the obstacles that stand in their way—even if it means murder.

A terrifying exploration of how vulnerable we all are to stalking and manipulation, debut author Caroline Kepnes delivers a razor-sharp novel for our hyper-connected digital age. You is a compulsively readable page-turner that’s being compared to Gone Girl, American Psycho, and Stephen King’s Misery.
