yeah I'm planning on reading the ender spin offs as soon as I'm done with the ender series. I know Ender's Shadow coincides with Ender's Game so it doesn't matter but I'm eager to find out what's next after Xenocide-that and I have to order the spin offs. I only have the books for the main series in my humble little library

Compared to Ender's Game, Children of the Mind was a vast disappointment to me. Good luck on that, friend.

Well, the other 3 books in the Ender's Game series are really meant for a different audience, so it's understandable why you wouldn't like them as much. You might like Ender's Shadow a bit more though (and that series)

I tried reading The Fault in Our Stars. Really, I tried. I couldn't do it. Not even the audio book.
I just can't get into it. Not without thinking "gee, I could be spending this time doing so many better things."
The only words-only things I read are light novels (see SAO's GGO arc) and fan-written derivative homoromantic works. Nothing else is really worth my time.

actually I made the mistake of saying Children of the Mind. I only read up to Xenocide. But I guess I won't know until I read it. I thought Speaker for the Dead and Xenocide were better (especially that twist in Xenocide) than Ender's Game but that may be a faulty impression because I took longer to read through Ender's Game when I first picked it up. Also I read in the intro OSC wrote that Speaker for the Dead was his original inspiration (and I can see why) but it wouldn't have made much sense without ender's game so he wrote Ender's Game first.
