Books

I love to read. I tend to get stuck on specific subjects and read everything I can find about it. I hope someone reads some of these opinions and posts some comments. Always interested in the thoughts of others. I will start with my favorite.

Ender's Game
I first read this book my senior year of high school and have probably read it 10x or so since then. I like the sequels and the prequel/parallel stuff of the last couple of years has been enjoyable but all pale relative the the first installment. You can't help but feel sorry for Ender. He suffers in every way conceivable. Remove from his sister, twisted by the military trainers, forced to put his friends in harms way without knowing. Truly sad. I think what I loved most about the story was the interaction between Peter and Valentine. Orson Scott Card does a great job with these books, though I am really not a huge fan of his other work. There has been much talk about turning this into a movie. It would be interesting to see but I'm sure would ultimately disappoint.
