One more thing...
I know this is the third thing I have posted today, sorry. I just wanted everyone to feel free to email anything you want me to "post". For example, the book we are working on is your pick and you want me to post discussion questions. Or even if there are questions you would like to pose about another book.
Also, I would like everyone to email me your first pick. Title, author and why you chose that book. I will figure out how to decide what order we go in eventually.
Next Book...Kelsey's Pick
So I'm still working on how we are going to decide who picks which books...let me know if you have any ideas. However, for this months, Kelsey picked, because she is my partner in crime on this. So I felt that it was only fair to let her pick since she was there since conception of this thing.
Her pick for June is 1984 by George Orwell. I think we have until the end of June to finish.
(Kelsey, if any of that was wrong, just let me know and I will correct it.)
Ender's Game Discussion
For those of you in or around the Bristol area, we will get together soon. I am currently in Texas with my sister and her family, but I will be back next week. We will have to figure out when everyone can get together. Perhaps either Wed June 10 or Sat June 13. Let me know when is best.
As for the discussion here... I thought I would post some questions/thoughts and have you all comment on them.
1) First off, did you like/enjoy the book?
2) Who do you feel you identified with the most and why?
3) Do you feel that what they put Ender was justified to save all of Earth? Do you think they could have gotten the same results from Ender?
4) What do you think of the ending?
5) Do you feel sorry for the buggers or think they deserved what happened to them?
6) Have you thought about when this book was written...the things Card writes about that hadn't happened then but have now?
