I like the characters of Ender’s Game because most of them have some depth. This was one of the first books I read that had realistically flawed characters. There were no pure heroes or clear-cut villains, which I found to be a curiosity since I typically read pure fantasy and comic books before I got into that one. It helped that the world had a thorough history that I still find fascinating. I’m sure not to read it too often since I figure it’ll take the magic away if I read it more than once a year.

What about you? What book do you go back to multiple times?

Thought-provoking question from the ever-challenging Rosie Amber. What is your go-to re-read? For years I didn’t head out without the increasingly tattered copy of GOOD OMENS (Terry Pratchett & Neil Gaiman), now thankfully digital. Excellent desert island stuff!

I also liked Ender’s Game – great sci-fi – but not enough to read it again. I did not enjoy the subsequent books nearly as well, and the movie didn’t do the book any favors.

Don’t think I’d like it, but then again I’m a Stargate fan.

I always go back to Pride and Prejudice for a “comfort” read. Kind of boring I know but that’s the truth!

Thanks Jan I think there are plenty of readers who would agree with you there.
