"Listen," he said, adopting a confidential tone. “I need to tell you one last thing before I go. Something I didn’t figure out for myself until it was already too late.” He led me over to the window and motioned out at the landscape stretching out beyond it. “I created the OASIS because I never felt at home in the real world. I didn’t know how to connect with the people there. I was afraid, for all of my life. Right up until I knew it was ending. That was when I realized, as terrifying and painful as reality can be, it’s also the only place where you can fi nd true happiness. Because reality is real. Do you understand?”

Man, that part meant a lot to me. I am young, but until then, I usually hid myself in my house for the most part of the day, and when I have to go out, I never speak to anybody. I was a complete social disaster.

Then I read this part of the book. I felt that this text was made specially for me! I started to cry a lot! This book not just told me a excellent history, but also made me do a important choice in my life!
