What we liked:
- The story was engaging and kept you reading,
plus it was a quick read.
- For it being a Science Fiction book it was very
interesting and entertaining for the men in the group and the women too. That
was a nice surprise to all of us.
- The way the author explained the intelligence
and things Ender did was well written. It was also shocking to imagine someone
so intelligent at such a young age.
- The surprises and plot twists the author incorporated
throughout the story were not predictable and were well done.
What we didn’t like:
- The theory of relativity was confusing to understand,
and there wasn’t much clarification. At some parts it was hard to decipher what
age Ender was.
- Other science aspects of the books were
confusing too. We all agreed that some details and explanations would have been
welcomed. Though it wasn’t a turn off that it wasn’t all explained, just would
have been nice.
- Some of us didn’t care to read about Valentine
and Peter towards the middle of the book. We felt had it been removed the book
would have still been wonderful.
