Just recently picked up my own copy of Speaker for the Dead to complete my Ender's trilogy, so that's what I'm re-reading. Probably get started on Xenocide tonight.

Of course I did. Pretty sure I told you about it too. Think I finished it within a couple of days of receiving it.

Now I just need to find copies of 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7 to complete my collection.

Hahaha, no, the only other one I own is Goblet of Fire. But I've read them all, so don't worry about it, really.

Hush you...
Gave me a reason to get Beorn to straighten out his room while we looked for dupes.
All I need is to find a used copy of CoS...

Hahahaha, I would never be so churlish.

Really not necessary Menolly, but if you're going to insist, I can only be grateful and appreciative.

Believe it or not, I just read Dune for the first time.
Not really my type of book, but turned out to be an interesting story.
So, are the sequels worth reading?
