Ender's Game

melissa_hudson_8331 shared a tip "Second time reading it. I love this book. My kid is probably still too young for it, but I was happy to see that I still loved it. I'm going to read the series now. June 15"

tracy_pierson_6458 shared a tip "Oh, jeez, all of it? I ended up reading the entire series and was sad when I finished. I think I liked Bean more than anyone in this book. Maybe because I am short and mouthy, too. Ha!"

anna_howard_5947 shared a tip "A strange, yet engrossing novel. The protagonist seems so young and yet so mature, alien and yet so immersive. And the philosophies, adventure, and moral dilemmas make this a very different kind of science fiction."

jen_saylor shared a tip "You know, lately I've been working my way through the discworld series. It's a very different tone than Ender's Game, but Pratchett's writing style really transports you"

wb_dax shared a tip "Almost all of his works (minus the very mormon-specific writings) are worth every page. One of my favorite authors. I could not get enough of the Ender's series and reviewing his other works I have yet to read, have put me in the curling-up-with-a-good-book,-tea,-and-blanket mood."

kristen_rouse_750 shared a tip "Couldn’t put it down. The juxtaposition between Ender’s training and his sister’s storyline back on earth provided so much texture."

nerdgirllin shared a tip "Absolutely, its a great read. The movie is decent too but don't watch the film until you read the book. The movie doesn't do the book justice."

aesatra shared a tip "The concept was good, but the author had certain views that translated into his writing that turned me off from reading. Imo, the movie is better."

annie_quinlan_4667 shared a tip "This book is just amazing, an important book for kids who feel "different" to read and an important book for adults to read/reread and take in the books message."

christian_brehm shared a tip "Its been years since I've read it. But I distinctly remeber when Edner was given his own team, as well as the computer simulation games."

dorothy_masters shared a tip "The book is much better. Ender is even younger than in the movie and you get to see more of what his siblings are doing on earth. It's the first of a series."

april_stanton shared a tip "I read this in high school and hated it. Probably biased against sci-fi. When I read it again as an adult I was HOOKED! I LOVE this book and the questions it poses.... I even read some other books in the same series!"

lisa_gina_cole shared a tip "Great book, weird series to follow though, it branches out and follows different characters, if anyone has a good read order, please share!"

christopher_simonsen shared a tip "I liked it. It was surprising how it tied back into the game. I was not a big fan of the 2 nd book in the series but I liked the third. I also liked bean’s story and the short stories he wrote about Ender’s parents meeting and how Ender met Jane."

dave_thurlow shared a tip "While q good book on it's own, the author chose to use his success as a soapbox to encourage horrific treatment of LGBTQ including supporting laws making their mere existence illegal. Please don't buy his work. Hell just use the power that gives him to hurt people."

tasha_drexler shared a tip "I never try to pick a favorite theres just to many good ones and they are always the best in different ways. Favoret ended book is the first kick it all off."

rebecca_whitley_8331 shared a tip "I thought so. I have reread it a few times which is rare for me. Kind of a staple to read if you want to get into the Sci fi category."

michael_anderson_2343 shared a tip "Do you like sci-fi? This was my introduction to the genre, and probably the only required reading in school that I actually enjoyed. It brings up interesting moral questions in a surprisingly believable future Earth with a relatable protagonist (though I'm nowhere NEAR as smart as him, haha!) It's not super long, and if you like it, there are sequels and spinoffs that are all in the same universe."

kelsey_7243 shared a tip "I really enjoyed the Red Rising series by Pierce Brown. It's a similar series to Enders game but also has elements like hunger games."

daniel_brook shared a tip "I'm about to go back to Becky Chambers' books, the series that started with The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. Also, Christopher Paolini recently put out To Sleep in a Sea of Stars, and I really enjoyed that."

james_wollard shared a tip "Hmmm an favorite book?? The Eragon series was my childhood, and I am currently working through the Wheel of time series! Both of them are up there for favorites"

julia_channell shared a tip "This is my favorite book I’ve ever read. It is wonderfully written and makes you think a lot about some things you would not normally think about. I am able to relate immensely to the main character because we have very similar personality types, which makes the book even more enjoyable."

riana_billy shared a tip "I choose to read this book for English for our Great American Novel unit. Did not regret my choice. This book is amazing! I love fiction and this sci-fi book is perfectly written. But now I am mad bc now I want to read the whole series 😭"
