[...] some of you may know, I am a Fantasy/Science Fiction geek and have written previously about Fablehaven. I have just finished the 3rd book Grip of the Shadow [...]

Sorry Rame, It was Randall. He sent about 20 books by the author, Larry Niven. I liked most of them, but some of them were a little over my head in the spacey sci-fi department!!

I will have to check out the Alcatraz book. You always suggest good books too.

Am I that big brother or was it Randall?

Ender’s is still my #1 favorite scifi/fantasy. HP still comes in 2nd.

I love all the rest of Card’s stuff.

If you are looking for a new favorite, may I recommend “Alcatraz vs. the Evil Librarians” by Brandon Sanderson. Sanderson was recently selected as the author to finish the Wheel of Time series after the original author, Robert Jordan, died of a rare blood disease.

“Alcatraz” is a young adult book so it is a quick, clean and very funny fantasy read.

I loved this book too as did my husband and the rest of your big brothers!! I can’t wait for Griff to be old enough to read it as well.

Thanks for the treat idea from your book club too! It looks like a perfect “craving” treat for a pregnant person! Hee Hee

Marie – I love this book, too! Of course I love sci-fi, look who my older brothers are – I had no choice :). Great pick for your book club, I hope the other ladies enjoy it. I need to get into a book club here. I loved my book club in San Diego, and have been missing it…

Kimberly – I will have to check out Hound of Rowan. I love to get suggestions from other readers. Thanks.

OCJEN – I am proud of you to try anything. It is a good Sci-fi book to start with.

Becky – I didn’t know you loved this one too. You are also my favorite niece now!! I did really love Ender’s Shadow too.

Bonnieb – I just watched the movie for Stardust and I liked it better than the book. I would suggest just watching the movie on that one. The endings are very different and I liked the Movie ending a lot better!

Amy – I am glad that I gave you that extra push to read this fun book. If you already like sci-fi, you will love this one too. And I am glad you liked the pizza, it’s a favorite.

You don’t know me. I have been lurking around for awhile, but I just have to comment here! My husband has been pestering me for months to read Ender’s Game and he was so excited to hear that someone else suggested it to me. I do love sci-fi/fantasy books (and anything else with words!) so there is no excuse now!

I love your blog. I made your pizza dough the other day-yummy! Thanks!

I love O. S. Card’s Sci-fi books! All the ones I read were fabulous. What did you think of Stardust? I saw the movie before I read the book. I think that ruined if for me. I didn’t really like the book, because I expected it to be more like the move.
