I love The Hunger Games! I was a bit disappointed with Mockingjay to be honest, but still. The Hunger Games is brilliant.

Richard Castle | These books have to be the best i have read this year. They are utterly brilliant and very original. I also loved the emotional depth which was in this book, especially with Katniss. I have reviewed each of these books and i will always recommend them because they are simply brilliant. |

Well I just finished Mockingjay today and I love this series! My favorite is maybe Catching Fire to be honest.
But this is an original story and I like it. I wish the war in Mockinjay had actually ended how the book built it up.

I LOVE THE HUNGER GAMES!!! They are the second best books in the world ( HP is No.1... Obviously!) I read the whole series in a week and my two best friends read them too and they agree...FRICKING AMAZING! I love Peeta I am so not a Galebird. I can't wait for the movie, 23rd of March here we come!!! I think that all the actors are perfect for the role. Colton Haynes is perfect for Finnick he should get it without a doubt. The Hunger Games were the only books that after i read them i dreamed about them. I nearly cried so many times, it was so powerful, the epilogue was fair annoying though, it left me striving for more information. And lastly THE HUNGER GAMES ARE NOT TWILIGHT SO STOP COMPARING THEM TO IT but if i did have to choose a team it would be Team Peeta or Team Finnick or Team Buttercup! |

I LOVE those books. They were so good. I read the whole series in about three days this summer - so a book a day. Honestly, Mockingjay wasn't as good as The Hunger Games, and Catching Fire, but over all, it is like the second best series in the world - obviously with HP being the first!!

Can't believe I haven't posted here. I read the Hunger Games series a while ago, last year to be exact lol.
I am a sucker for heroine type stories and this one was extremely good because Katniss didn't have any supernatural powers. I absolutely loved the first two but like others was a little disappointed with Mockingjay. It was still a very good read but I could see what was going to happen before it did and I like to be taken by surprise.
But other than that. I rate this series second to HP for sure.

Eeeeep! I am a super Hunger Games fan! I've read the first two books and I'm still working on finishing the third one. Rue's my favorite character. Too bad, she was not included up to the last.  But all in all, I am a Katniss/ Peeta shipper and believer!

I LOVE THE HUNGER GAMES! I am lie SUPER obsessed with it!  Suzanne Collins is brilliant!
The Hunger Games are the second best books! Harry Potter of course is the first 
My mom suggested it, and I was hooked from page one. They're brilliant!  And Josh Hutcherson  He's perfect for Peeta! 
My favorite character is Peetaaa! I LOVE HIM! |

I love Peeta. Just saying. I was ALWAYS Team Peeta.  HAHA. I was late in my morning class 'cause I finished the book in one sitting the whole night. And when I told my classmate the reason why I was late, she was like "you're late because of that book?!?" HEH. She just didn't understand. It's soooo awesooome!
AND of course, I am Team Effie! No, Team Katniss! Really XD

I really really LOVE this book. I can't keep my eyes from it. When I was reading the third book I completely forgot that I was at work till one of my colleague snap me out of it
I'm always and forever will be Team Gale. Gale FTW! *eyes Roro*
But I'm not Gale/Katniss shipper  Its just weird and beside Gale is MINE  Peeta/Katniss is okay I guess *shrugs* but my favorite couple is Finnick and Annie

I'm reading Catching Fire and you know, I can actually picture Daniel Radcliffe playing the handsome Finnick Odair and Scarlett Johannson portraying the awesome Johanna Mason since Johanna Mason makes me think Johannson and Scarlett Johannson is awesome herself. As for Daniel, it's the green eyes that gives. But since Finnick's also tall and bronze-haired, I wonder if Robert Pattinson couldn't have been more fit for Finnick. Phew.

I absolutely loved these books! My brother got me the first one for Christmas this year, and after finishing it in a day I went out and got the next two, reading them just as quickly! I just really liked them because it was a unique concept and all the characters were just so interesting/intriguing. I am actually really excited to see the movie adaption, and I hope they stay true to the books!

So I finally read the Hunger Games since everybody was telling me how awesome it is. Well I just have to say that OMG I loved it. I couldn't put the books down. I can't wait for the movie to come out. We all know it will ot be as good as the books (they never are) but still I am sure it will be great. Gah, I seriously couldnn't imagine having to live like that. It sure makes you count your blessings!

i've finished Hunger Games and it was AWESOME! it reads like a movie, because i could actually see it playing in my minds eye. and i must say that although the usual plot points are the same-- love triangle/ disadvantaged upbringing/ impossible odds etc-- the presentation is unique that i didnt see it coming. nothing about it feels contrived, at least for the first book.
i'm halfway through Catching Fire and i cant wait to get to Mockingjay |
