2025 Reading Challenge discussion

Hello everybody!

This weekend I've decided to binge-watch the new season of "The Crown" which is set in the 80's - my favorite decade!

I just love the culture and the atmosphere of the 80's : the music, the movies, the fashion, the hairstyles, ...
I would like to pursue this list and stay in this ' 80's vibe' by reading books set in the 80's (not necessarily written in the 80's).

Do you have any recommendations for me? :D
Thank so much!

Eileen

That seems really good, thank you ! :D

If you want to exchange on movies and music too, feel free :D

Personally, I'm born in 92 so I missed all the fun and I'm trying to catch up hahaha

Those who love the 80s should definitely read Ready Player One by Ernest Cline. Watching the movie is not an acceptable substitute.

I'm not really into Science Fiction but maybe I should give a try :) Thanks!

We Ride Upon Sticks was great!

Agreed--the movie was a big letdown. That said, I think that listening to the audiobook improved the book experience for me.
