The books were an early stop in gaining confidence in reading.
I don't think they're irreplacable in that function. On the contrary, but discovering how awful Rowling is as i've grown up has been really incredibly depressing.
Same. I've got other authors from my childhood who were chuds but at least their books hold up.
I will stand by my love of Ender's Game and its sequels till the day I die.
Speaker for the Dead remains one of my favorites of all time, although I wasn't a huge fan of the Enders Shadow series the late sequels where the sci fi gets weird are great.
I'd agree with some of the sequels. It gets weird when the chinese do gene selection to make themselves tiny and autistic to better live in space
Same but I still need to read the sequels
