Bout of Books 23 Day 5 Recap!


Here's my latest reading stats for Day 5 of Bout of Books 23.

I read through page 96 of Dear Martin by Nic Stone, which is a young adult novel and good so far. 

I also began listening to the unabridged audio version of Enchantment by Orson Scott Card from Audible. This is my first experience reading anything written by Orson Scott Card. I've been curious about Orson Scott Card's writing as he seems to be a pretty popular writer within the science fiction/fantasy community. 

Enchantment is a fantasy novel. I usually don't read novels from the fantasy genre, but I am liking Enchantment so far. The best way to describe Enchantment is that it's a Slavic retelling of the Sleeping Beauty Fairy Tale. I'm 11% into Enchantment so far. It will be interesting to see how this novel plays out.

    1. I saw the movie version of Ender's Game and liked it. I'm sure the novel is much better. For some reason after seeing the movie version of a book, I tend to not want to read the book. But if I've read a book, then I enjoy seeing how the movie version of said book compares with the book itself. Go figure!
