This is the only science fiction book that I've ever liked.
Ender is a relatable character and so are most of the other characters. Orson Scott Card managed to tell a story so unique and fascinating it will leave you yearning for more. Although you could see this book as a little boy's life struggle, the way it is narrated is simply too good.

I really enjoyed this world. I found the big reveal very satisfying but not the actual ending. All the characters were fine; I didn't love them but I didn't hate them. Ender being bullied felt a bit repetitive at times, as well as some of Graff's sections.

Thank you brother for recommending it! (hehe) I normally don't read science fiction but this one was a real page turner. I really love how I get to know Ender and I thought his character development was great. Also, the plot twist at the end though.... Unfortunately, I will probably not read any of the other books in the series...
This book was just magical. I found myself rooting for Ender and caring for what happened to him. The ending was a major plot twist, I'm not going to lie, and I found myself staring at the wall for two minutes wondering what in the world just happened.
This book written by Orson Scott Card has easily become one of my all-time favorites. Maybe it's because I can somehow relate to Ender, or maybe it's because I found the way Card wrote to be absolutely beautiful, nevertheless it's a book that I would definitely recommend to anyone of any age.

Catchy, with a surprising last part. If you like strategics this is for you. Don't watch the (bad bad) movie. 3½ stars.
