Hunger Games Trilogy discussion
Introductions
Hi! Sam here. Heard lots about Hunger Games but it was my ex-boss who told me bout it. I just recently started reading Hunger games and I completed it in one night. Completed Catching fire the next, and now I'm halfway thru mockingjay. A unique love story spiced with just the right amount of action and suspense.

Hello, my names Laura. I joined the group recently. I heard about the Hunger Games through my boss and co worker. Read the first one and was hooked! I love the whole series. I feel my favorite part was the reaping and the berries. Most likely when she feels somethinga after she kisses Peeta.
I'm Leesdame (means readinglady in Dutch) but my friends call me Luna. I'm living in Holland. In 2010 I read for the first time The Hungergames. They are one of my favorite books ever.My favorite part is the scene where Katniss sitting in the tree and other tributs talks about her.
oops, I sotra skipped this part, and went right to posting.. so um.. HI guys!
Hello Laura, hello Leesdame, hello Hylian Princess.
Hi! I can't believe I only just now thought to search for a GoodReads group on The Hunger Games--I read the books a long time ago! Of course, I devoured them--the writing is so wonderful. Can't wait to get into all the discussions here soon!
hey you guys :) im kylie
im jared i like the hunger games. was amazing
cool everyone.its so amazing how everyone likes the books so much u cant even buy them in stores or get them at the library anymore!!
Jello! My name is Aisha. I'm a book addict in need of therapy-wait scratch that. It didn't work ^.^ I found the Hunger Games from my library. Saw the book, thought it was interesting, left with it.
Hi Everyone. I'm Angelina aka WordsFreeMe. I just joined the group and am excited to get to meet others and talk about the Hunger Games!
Hi! My nickname is Abelle so everyone can call me that. I found the Hunger games because everyone at school was reading so I decided to try it. I LOVE the hunger games and LOVE to talk about it!
Yo. I'm Krys. I read THG trilogy around late 2010 to early 2011. It was given to me as a gift. My favorite part is probably the Games itself. So, yeah. :)
my sister found it at borders last summer and thought it looked interesting...when I got back to school that year, everyone was really into it! I just saw the movie. I really liked Cinna (go Lenny Kravitz!!) but I think they casted it really well overall
Hi, I'm Haley. :) I just got into the series about a month ago, but I'm a big fan now! Loved the movie too!
Hello, I'm Cheska. I'm on vacation so I grabbed the chance to read the whole Hunger Games trilogy. I never thought I'd finish it in two weeks, knowing that I am not really a bookworm. Well I guess I am now. Haha
Hey im Valerie!Picked up THG thinking it was a bit over-rated (from all the crazy movie premire insanity). BOY WAS I WRONG! best book ever. completely and utterly obsessed. just finished the last book today. I read all of them in about 4 days haha so much for savoring!! sad its over. i cried at the last page because i wont ever be able to experience it again. but yes. i <3 THG!!
Hey, I'm Ellie! I first found about about the books on here but I didn't bother to read them because I didn't think they'd be my thing. I then saw the trailer for the film and thought it looked awesome! I was having an off week and I asked two of my best friends if they wanted to go and watch it with me and they said yes. I swear everyone in that screening that day must hate us because we had a right laugh! It wasn't anything to laugh about really but we all thought it was hilarious that we were crying like loonies! The film was amazing and I liked it so I thought I'd give the books a go and so am currently reading The Hunger Games! I can't wait to read the other two! It shows how much me and my friends loved it because we're now sending each other pictures and quotes from the film and the books. My favourite part is either the interviews or when Katniss and Peeta are in the cave and they're talking about when Peeta first fell in love with Katniss.
Well, I'm Jordan! Two summers ago my cousin was reading The Hunger Games and told me about them. I thought they sounded interesting but a little dark, so I kind of looked past it.
Then, my librarian said she read them a few months ago but I still didn't read them.
Sadly, I was one of the people who read the book when I knew the movie was coming out. I feel stupid about them but these books are my favorite.
My favorite part in The Hunger Games was definitely when Katniss and Peeta were in the cave. I loved the 'romance' and everything. :) It was really cute.
Just thought I'd share. :)
Hi, I'm Emily.I discovered the Hunger Games a few years ago, when my friend was reading the first book and declared it too gruesome and disturbing. Of course, me being the strange person I am, this appealed to me so I went to the library and borrowed the first book. I now am I a huge fan and have purchased the whole series, which are now in extremely poor condition because of the excessive rereads I have done.
:)
Sounds like the GONE series that I own... The whole freaking cover is ripped off of the first one, and the cover models on the second are looking like freaks with all the edits I made to them with gel pens... Hahahah don't even get me started on the other 3. ;)
Hi, I'm Gonca, I read the book when it became like really popular, so I learned it like that, and it became my life. I don't have a favorite part but my favorite book out of the trilogy is mockingjay :) Hii everyonee :)
looking for nook friends being that I am a newbie and would love to borrow the 2nd book.
Hello, my name is Jade. I have only just joined the site and this was the first club I joined. I'm still updating my book list and added a load of random dates. When I get a spare day I shall complete my list. I started reading The Hunger Games a few months ago and I was hyped to hear of a movie coming out. I've brought so much merch since the movie came out it's unbelievable.Nice to meet you all.

Hi, new here. I guess I liked the part where Peeta and Katniss gets interviewed. Heh. I'm a sucker for Romance and Comedy.

Yes, I did like the berry part...I don't know why though. But I guess it reminded my of Romeo and Juliet... but Romeo and Juliet is in the future...and they really know how to kill a person...and they're in this Supposed-To-Be-Very-Fun-Reality-Game-But-It's-A-Fight-To-the-Death-Thingy.
Since then, I haven't ate berries...

Can I invite my friend Andrew into this group?
Hello! My name is Suzanne, also new here. I heard about the Hunger Games awhile ago from a friend but it didn't sound like my kind of book. Early last week another friend asked if I had read it and said she couldn't talk to me anymore since I hadn't. (She was kidding of course, but seeing as we have very similar taste in books I decided now was the time.) Needless to say, by the end of last week I'd finished all three books because they are awesome.
My favorite part of The Hunger Games had to be when Katniss tricked Peeta into eating the berries with the sleeping syrup. I haven't seen the movie, and I have no idea if this is in it, but I can just see Peeta's face when he realizes what it is and tries to fight it - a lot of love and passion on both ends there.
Hello people! My name is Flor (means flower).I don't remember how I found out about the books, but it was in high school (about 2-3 years ago), but as I went into college I got busy and barely managed to get to the books a couple of months ago.
There are a lot of parts I like, but one of my favorites is from Mockingjay, when Finnick is in his robe and Katniss tells him to cover up and he plays the provocative thing.
Hey y'all! My name is Stefani. I first heard about these books when I was a senior. My school district does this thing called a book fair, where Scholastic brings in a whole bunch of books to be sold through the school to the community. I was looking around and saw them, however when I first read the synopsis of the first book I put it down immediately because it sounded grotesque and it wasn't really my genre of reading. However a couple of months ago I was wondering around Barnes and Noble on my Nook and saw the books again. I thought, "I'm not reading anything new at the moment so why not at least get a sample and see how I like the book?" So I did and well... here I am. :)
Favorite part... sheesh that's a hard one. I'd have to say my favorite part of ANY of the book is in Catching Fire. It is when Peeta gives Katniss the mockingjay locket that has a picture of her mother, Prim, and Gale, and he tells her that she needs to survive because she has people who love her and who are depending on her, and that she will have a future. Whereas if she dies he won't have a reason to continue living, pretty much. I loved that part because it solidified Peeta as the kind of character I feel the world needs to see: selfless, truly loving, and dedicated. There are a lot of scenes in the books that I love, but when it really comes down to it... this is my FAVORITE moment. :)

Early last week another friend asked if I had read it and..."Suzanne that was such a good part! When I first read it I was trying to cover my eyes from the utter betrayal of it, but soon found while reading that isn't the best thing! LOL! The thing I love about that scene is even though Katniss is the narrator, you completely get the feelings that Peeta is having.
HiI'm Vikki from Northern Ireland. I'm a lawyer and self-confessed bookworm for as long as I can remember!
I have to admit I'd been trying to avoid they hype about The Hunger Games for ages. One of my friends talked me into going to see the movie with her, although I went more to catch up with my friend than having any real interest in seeing the film. But I was hooked - went out and bought the first book on my way home from the cinema. Just finished Catching Fire and ready to start Mockingjay.
Hard to pick a fave part at the moment...
"The thing I love about that scene is even though Katniss is the narrator, you completely get the feelings that Peeta is having. "This is so true! Suzanne Collins was so great on her descriptions that you are able to pick up everyone's emotions even though you aren't told outright what they are thinking.
Hi, I'm Emily! Someone in my class did their book project on Mockingjay a few years ago and it sounded inetersting so i decided to read it. I procrastinated on reading the series though and just recently read all three books.
I really love all of them but I really love the berries part :)
Hi I'm savannah and I love the hunger games!!!!!!
Hi there, I'm Kristina! I first found out about The Hunger Games when I had the option to read it the summer before my senior year of high school for extra credit. I never thought it would have this big of an effect on me, but it has turned out to be one of my favorite novels! My favorite part is probably any part that includes Cato; Alexander Ludwig's portrayal of him in the film really made me see how much of a tragic character he is.
New rp. We have tons of slots open in Mylans rp hunger games
Hi, I'm Amanda.I first read these books about two years ago and then spent agonizing months waiting for Mockingjay (a real disappointment in my book) but anyway...I love these books, and my favorite part is either the cave scene where Katniss drugs Peeta, or when Peeta is like "She has no idea. The effect she can have." I'm still disappointed that they didn't have her giving him the sleep syrup in the movie. It was such an emotionally charge scene in the book.... :...( Also, just so all of you know that I'm not just some average person walking down the street, for the last month (and for the next month as well) I have been (will be) dressing like characters from the hunger games. My grade and I made a script of the 74th hunger games, and we cast everyone in our class as either a tribute, an announcer, a stylist, family member, or friend. My friend was cast as Cato, and he has been dressing like him sporadically. It's great to see the look on his face when I'm Effie, and I jump up to give him a hug around the neck and scream "Cato!" in a squeaky, high-pitched, voice. :)
