National Read a Book Day

Today is National Read a Book day! In celebration, here is a great link that I came across on my Pinterest and thought I would share it. Of the books on this list I have read 9 out of 40. So I thought I could share a short review of one that I recently read. It was not easy to choose one but I decided to stray away from the obvious favorites and share a bit about Ender’s Game.

This is a book that I was recommended and had my reservations about reading such a sci-fi type novel. But I then found out the book was being made into a movie in the near future, with some large names, so I decided to give it a go. This was a great read and very entertaining. The story is about a young boy named Ender in a society that raises their children to become fighters against an inevitable alien attack. Without giving anything away the story takes you through the childhood, schooling and training of Ender. I would highly recommend this to anyone, all ages welcome. This is an easy read for younger ages as well as an enjoyable read for adults.

So get out and celebrate Read a Book Day and pick up a new one!

Recommendations are always welcome!
