Reading

[dogbone27]

I really like to read, and I was borrowed a book from a friend a little less than two months ago called Ender's Game, and I finished that quite quickly, so he borrowed me the next book in the series, Speaker for the Dead, and once I got past the beginning, which was the difficult part because the books are similar, but completely different at the same time, and i finished that quickly, and now i'm borrowing the third book, Xenocide, which is a lot like the second one, but even better, these are written by orson scott card, has anyone else read them

Well, I am a huge reader (Perfect Lexile) but I have never heard of either of those books. I just finished reading "1984" by George Orwell. It was pretty good...alot of conspiricy. Also, I recently read "To Kill a Mocking Bird" "Dandalion Wine" "And then there were none" and "Great Expectations". Has anyone read any of these classics?

Also i have read Great Expectations.

i dont really lke books ,but when i do pick one up i like them adventure/ action in them

 

[dogbone27]

I have read To Kill A Mockingbird
Yeah it is a series, and I like them so far, and then there are several books in the Enders series, but don't follow the others chronologically, and Ender is not a main character, according to my friend, and some of those are Ender's Shadow, which Bean is the main character, and Shadow of the Hegamon, which is about Peter

Enders Game is one of the best books i have read. There are around 9 books in that series. For about Ender and theres a split Series about Bean which starts with Ender's Shadow. Orson Scott Card (The author) is making two new books that tie together the Ender and Bean series.

I have read all of them and enjoyed them very much.

I would recommend I am Legend by Richard Matheson for those of you who like horror Sci-Fi stuff.

Yeah, I liked "I am Legend". The movie was a good representation too

Yeah, I liked "I am Legend". The movie was a good representation too

The movie was nothing like the book. It was more of a representation of if the book was written now during the 2008 year. The book takes place in the mid 1900's so its different. All words aside the movie was good but nothing like the book, besides from the mutated people killing everyone.

 

[dogbone27]

there were two other movies based off the book too i believe, but they are quite old, maybe only one other though, not sure

The Last Man on Earth (1964)
The Omega Man (1971)

Well yeah, I ment like the graphics where good so it did a good job representing the book as a good one. Sorry I didn't clearify Yeah, a good portion of the book went into detail of everyone's life like most good books. However, movies don't have time to do that so it ends up feeling rushed Just read the books, they are usually better.
