Thanks, added The Circle. I'm sad it looks like a blog-spam to you, this list was shaped after a big discussion we had on reddit. I'd appreciate if you could point out a specific book that doesn't fit thematically or at least stylistically.

The reason it feels like spam is because the summaries look like they were scraped from Amazon/similar.

There's no discussion about the books. Instead it is filler-content:

      "Full of high stakes, thrillers, and fantastic twists and turns, fans of Ready Player One are sure to love this addictive read." --BuzzFeed"A potent commentary on how much we're willing to give up to the lure of technology." --EW "A fantastic journey from start to finish." --Hypable New York Times bestselling authors Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller ...

That tells me nothing about the plot. The world. Why it is related to Ready Player One. It even mentions that book in the information - almost like there is no effort behind it, and just random books pulled from other sites with no care, no attention, no real link at all.

(i.e. scraping and pattern matching. Not real curation.)

Yes, the descriptions are generic book descriptions and not specific to this list, but the list itself is curated. I see your point tho, you'd like to see context on why we selected these specific books.
