I find it hard to get wrapped up in books. But when I do I obsess about it, dream about it and try and get everyone around me involved in it too. I was short of a book to read and a friend of mine put me onto the series of Enders Game. At first I was dubious towards the genre 'sci-fi' but have since discovered its one of my preferred genres to read. I love fantasy and being taken away to another world. And this world (written in the 80's) is predicted uncannily close to the future we now live in. They refer to what is now known to us as the internet 'the nets' (hehe), and of course it developed to humans colonizing other planets (which I found out recently NASA has spotted a cluster of stars which have planets amongst it which are pretty much like earth COOL) and I also discovered that we can now be buried when we die in a sack and have a tree planted on top of us (which is another aspect of the other books in the series). It’s a very philosophical book which I found quite intriguing, introducing several different ideas of how the world works.
I could blab for a long time about how much I like these series but you should try reading it. YES ^__^ (plus I imagine Ender – once grown up – to be very handsome and wise, maybe a potential husband – too far?) LOL
