I just read over the posts on the GTKY thread, and we can be friends. Anyone who loves Atlas Shrugged and/or Ender's Game is alright in my book!
Flute, DH really wants to name a future son Ender. Haha. He actually started re-reading the book today.

I LOVE Orson Scott Card!!!! He's amazing and has written some incredible books. Oh I could seriously go on and on about him.

Then you can join our circle of friends as well!
I actually have only read Ender's Game and Speaker for the Dead. Ender's Game blew my mind. I need to read more of his books.

Oh where do I begin?! Ok I think it depends on your interest. He has a new one out. It's called The Lost Gate. It's super good. Easy read and it's going to be a series. There's also Empire and Hidden Empire. Those are political dramas. I really enjoyed them and read Empire twice. It's only been out about four years. Lost Boys is really good as well but I don't know if I would read it as a new mom. I love the Homecoming series as well. Really he rarely goes wrong.

I haven't read Ender's Game, but it's now on the list
I've read Atlas Shrugged several times, probably every 2 years for the past 10. I noticed you like The Fountainhead I finally read it last year and enjoyed it, but Atlas Shrugged is still my favourite.
Haha, I love the name Ender, I thought it was really unique and cute. A very hard sell for DH though, even though he enjoyed the book!
How have I missed Atlas Shrugged? It's now on my list! Oh, and if you're interested, OSC has a website, the Intergalactic Medicine Show. He posts Ender-related short stories there from time to time. And for the record, I loved both series, so if you haven't checked out Ender's Shadow (and the 3 that follow it), it's pretty much amazing
As much as I love Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow, PLEASE don't name your son Ender! I just feel like he'll be made fun of in school:/
