It is really good. I liked it when I was reading it, but the more I think about it, the stronger my feelings about it are. It just sort of sticks with you.
Hunger Games takes place in the future in the "ruins" of North America. There are 12 districts and each district must send a boy and a girl between ages 12 and 18 to participate in the games where only the winner survives.
I have not read the Gregor series. Are they good. I am SO ready for Catching Fire.
Have you read Graceling by Kristin Cashore? It is really good, also. As is City of Bones...
I just finished Gone by Michael Grant. It was really good. I could not put it down. And he left it open for the sequel which comes out in June or July. This is one you should read!
Finished Sovay and I am now reading The Dark Hills Divide by Patrick Carman (The Land of Elyon Book 1) Sovay was not one of my favorites.
I forgot about Notes from a Midnight Driver. I laughed out loud through a lot of this book and then had some teary-eyed moments. Great book!
