Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card

5.0

This was an absolutely amazing read. It's one of those books where the underlying themes are very relatable. Who can't relate to the trouble of responsibility, and growing up, and being conflicted with your very being, caught between who you are and who you want to be?

I felt the characters were very interesting, but what really intrigued me was the brilliance of the story and the plot. The writing but simple but brilliant as well.

I'm not sure what else to say, except that to was a thoroughly enjoyable read that I couldn't easily put down. I had never even intended to read this book: it was there at this little store when I needed something to pass a few hours, but it was a great thing that I did. I don't know if the movie can do this book justice, just because there's so much emotion and internal turmoil going on within Ender that it's difficult to display visually. But I hope they do a good job, and I strongly recommend this book to everyone, adults and teenagers alike.
