3.0

So this one was pretty hard for me to get through and I'm not 100 percent sure why. I liked the world and the science fiction aspect of it, I also really liked the plot twist at the end, but I think the thing I didn't like was the whole children fighting children thing. For whatever reason this is one of my least favorite plot devices (examples of past books I didn't like for same reason: Hunger Games, Goblet of Fire, Throne of Glass) I just don't connect and something about it rubs me the wrong way. In this book and many others I know that is what the author wants you to feel but it just isn't something I like. I'm not sure if that made sense but yeah, overall I think Ender was a great character and I liked certain aspects of the story but it wasn't my favorite.
