Authors note:

This book was inspired by many social issues. The most important of the bunch is bullying. Bullying is a problem in many places. These places could be in schools, over the internet and people arent even trying to stop it anymore. And it is affecting many people.

I chose this topic because i really care about it. I think bullying is just terrible and needs to be stopped. I know many people who are bullied and have been bullied in the past and it is not fun. I have not had many personal experiences with bullying but i feel bad for the ones who have felt these terrible feelings.

I want the readers to feel like they could make a change by reading this book. Stand up for others. Do not just sit there and watch things happen. Try to stop them. Be the hero.

Synthesis Page: Is it fair or not fair?

                I am reading the book called, Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline.

I don't really think this book is fair, life is just really hard for Wade. First off the start of the book. We start off with and introduction of this character. His parents are dead and his lives with an ungrateful aunt who who pays no attention to wade and is just terrible to him. Just from the start of the book things seem bad. Fast forward a little bit. The main objective of this book is to find the three keys to these three gates. And if you beat all of the gates you win the competition and get a prize in real life. no body knows what it is and or who will win this prize. You have to beat it. So right after he has cleared the first gate. Wade meats this girl named, Art3mis. art3mis is  wades long lost cyber crush. But things dont turn out too good for them. Wade got his dream of hanging out with her. They even dated, i guess you could say. But everything gets ruined when Art3mis "breaks up" with him. They were invite to a dance together. Everything was going great. Wade felt his love towards art3mis but things didn't look that way towards the other side. Art3mis didn't love him. she didn't even know him in real life( page 187). Then there are the sixers. They found out who wade is in real life and found out where he lives. They asked him how to get the key or they will kill him. Wade did not agree and then because of this they blew up his house and killed his aunt. All because he did not tell him where to get the first key. Shortly after they found it and went through the first gate. And thirdly there is his friend aech. Aech is wades best friend and before aech cleared the first gate, he needed help from wade. Later in the book they had a fight and Aech was saying things that were not true but then wade went and said that he wouldnt have ever cleared the first gate without him. Then aech became pissed off and didn't now what to say so they were mad at each other for a long amount of time. Life just seems really dificult. He is in the iddle of a life or death contest and he is losing friends and family because of it.
