It's 2 am and I'm pissed. Why? Because I wanted to go to sleep hours ago. Unfortunately, after I picked up Game Alive, I was trapped.In the future, virtual reality (VR) is not far off from reality. When the protagonist, a prodigy coder, develops his own VR role-playing-game, he can't wait to dive in and escape his mother's latest "dad-wannabe" boyfriend. The ensuing adventure reveals that his game has higher stakes than he ever dreamed.This fast-paced story will have you glued to your seat start to finish. Plot, characters, writing, and dialogue were all expertly done. Jake and Des were well fleshed out, but I did feel that Kari could have established her personality in the beginning before her first stint inside VR. Thanks for the awesome read.
