5. what is the mood of this novel? do you find this novel saddens you in any way? why?

There were many moods taking place in my mind, but the main mood that I think took place in the book was chaos and anger. There were killing and wars in this story, so it was really chaotic. Almost every chapter had emotions of anger. Ender was isolated from people where ever he went. This was a tragic. This made Ender angry and sad, but he resisted it. People all around Ender, especially adults, made Ender really mad and angry because they controlled over him, doing actions that Ender didn’t really like, so I think the mood of angriness takes more than half of the story. The mood of this story changes when every time the setting changes. There was a sad mood when Ender had to leave from his family, especially from Valentine. He really loved his sister, Valentine, and she ones the only one that really comforted Ender, so leaving Valentine was a big choice. Another part is when Ender found out that he killed many living lives; he slept for two days by shock. I would have really suffered; thought it was a game, but was reality. The author used various interesting moods, which is one of the reasons that this book could be the best seller.

Yes I would say that the mood does vary multiple times in the book. Mrs.Mc
