Ender’s Game
“Far into the future, on an earth that has been attacked by an alien species know as buggers, lives a boy named Ender. At a young age, Ender was a super genius. He is drafted into a high intelligence army to learn how to be a well trained soldier. During his first year, he moved up from a “launchie” to an army member. He trains day to day making new friends, and dealing with the stress of leaving his family. We think that the setting of this book is very interesting. The technology is very futuristic, with laser guns that freeze the players in a training game, and a highly sophisticated desk with an interactive game.”

Life A We Knew It
“In northern Pennsylvania, Miranda lived a pretty average life. She has two brothers, no love life, divorced parents and a stepmom, along with other troubles. And though she didn’t really appreciate the luxuries she had, Miranda would soon. A meteor hits the moon one day, knocking it closer into orbit. There were tsunamis, tornados, volcanic eruptions, and no electricity. Miranda and her family are now facing dangerous challenges and fight to stay alive.
So far, we have found this book really interesting. This concept has never been done before. The mom is slowly going crazy, and Miranda’s friend is starving herself to death. In order for our group to continue to enjoy this book, the storyline really needs to pick up the pace.”
