In 1998, Cline wrote a screenplay entitled, Fanboys, about the craze surrounding the prequels to the Star Wars movies. Over a decade later, the movie was finally released in 2009. However, creative differences and his dissatisfaction with the final edit, led Cline to quit screenwriting and write a novel. That novel, based on an idea he had been considering for years, became the New York Times Bestseller, Ready Player One. His second novel, Armada released in 2015 also became a New York Times Bestseller. He made the Hollywood Reporter's 'Most Powerful Authors' 2016 list, entering at number 12.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 15 7 PM This month we'll be discussing one of Amanda's favorite books: Ready player one By Ernest Cline About the club: Our book club is open to all book lovers. We read across genres - fiction and non, sci-fi, literary fiction, mystery thrillers, etc. Our goal is to bring readers together, and to encourage people to step out of their regular reading comfort zones. We only ask that you purchase your copy of the book from us in order to participate in the discussion. Light refreshments provided. About the Book: In the year 2044, 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.

Okay, are you sitting down for this? Because you should really be sitting down. We have huge news: Ernest "Ernie" Cline will be at Avid Bookshop THIS Saturday, 8/16, around noon for a casual meet & greet. He may even do a Q&A if enough people turn up. Bring your the copies of Ready player one you got here at Avid and Mr. Cline will sign them for you; you can also pick up more copies of the book when you're here (we have a limited number arriving on Friday).

Please drop by around noon on Saturday and hang out with one of Avid's top bestselling authors of all time. Woot! Huge thanks to Ernie, who graciously and quickly answered the fangirl message I emailed to him the moment I realized he would be within driving distance of Athens.
