ender’s game
i have recently been persuaded that i will be less of a human being if i do not read jane eyre. in response, i was to choose a book that i felt the eyre-proponent should read, that she would not have, otherwise. this was my choice. i picked up a copy this weekend at barnes and noble, and, perusing the first chapter again, got pulled in and read it straight through. i first read this book when i was younger; i have read it many times since, and it probably qualifies as my favorite book. certainly, it has held that position in the past. this is wonderful sci-fi. though the writing seems at times a bit too pitched to younger readers, there is still a good message in it. and it’s fun, very fun, to read.
