My favorite quote:
"Perhaps it's impossible to wear an identity without becoming what you pretend to be."
This is one of my favorite books. It provides great insight into questions of truth, morality, and good verses evil.
It shows us what happens when someone is cast into a role, whether that roll is good or bad. Often times in life I have seen friends, family, and myself, being forced into a role or category by others. Unfortunately, we often end up believing in the hat that others have placed on us.
One part of the book that I found interesting was the Giant's challenge, which was part of a practicing game. The Giant's game was unbeatable, and Ender finally discovered that the only way to defeat the Giant was by killing him, which led him to wonder about his own morality.
I think it is true that it is our unbeatable challenges and struggles that can truly show who we are, for good or evil.
I think you should read this book.
