Hunger Games Trilogy discussion
Introductions
Hey, I'm Leng, and i found out about the Hunger Games Trilogy like last summer when a friend told me about it. I fell in love w/ the series right after part 1 when Peeta told everyone that he loved Katniss (had to be the best part) and till this point, I havent found a series better than this one!!
thanks, but i mean that part was good, but there were definitely others i luved more, like all the the time Katniss was thinking about peeta when he was at the capitol, it was the only thing that got me through the beginning of Mockingjay! i am so team peeta!
Mod
I had to wait over 2 weeks for my copy of Mockingjay to ship...
I got it from amazon, and one of the warehouses happens to be located 20 minutes from my house.
pre-ordering takes 4ever to ship, thats y i just wait 4 the day it comes out and go 2 the store and buy it that day!
Mod
I really like the Hunger Games Books. Are there any reccomendations you guys have for me about books that are similar?I'm Alex by the way
Mod
There was Girl in the Arena, but I hated it. Absolutely hated it. It was a cheap rip off of the Hunger Games.
Anyway, if you haven't read Island of the Blue Dolphins by Scot O'Dell, you should. It's about a girl surviving on an island off the coast of California. Childhood memories, man.
I've heard Divergent was extremely well written, it is similar fromwhat I've heard.
Even thought Epitaph Road isn't that similar, it's pretty good. :D About a world where only 3% of the male population is alive.
Anyway, this seems like a year for dystopias, but I still like THG. :D My allegiance is still strong. ;)
Mod
It's almost as good as the Hunger Games...or maybe I'm just easily entertained by dystopian violence.
And same as Jia, I recommend NOT reading Girl in the Arena. I got 70 pages in and still had no idea what was going on. :P
Hi i'm maya,and i borrowed this book from the library and didn't give it back for 3 months...haha
and then my brother bought it, and i bought the rest of the series :D my favorite part is any part with cinna, i ADORE HIM.

Hey, all! First of all, this is sooo not my type of book, generally. I decided to give The Hunger Games a try, and it was sooo good! I was surprised that I liked it and got so into it. I've been trying to get my hands on the 2nd one ever since. I read on my nook (super easy to take to work in my backpack as I cycle). The first one, someone sent to me via email. Does anyone have the 2nd? Willing to email? PLEASE. I neeeed to read the next book in this series. Lol. Wait. This is supposed to be an introduction.
Random facts about me: I like Coca-Cola, fruit, veggies, potatoes, rice, and pasta.
I love the beach.
I enjoy cycling to and from work as everyone else drives.
My favourite colour is lime green, and you'd probably guess it if you met me in person. Wallet, glasses, Pandora charms, cell phone case, coin purse, water bottle... All LIME spankin' GREEN!
I recently cut my hair SUPER SHORT. AGAIN! :D
Mod

Hey everyone, this is Cri. So I found out about the book from my classmates in my old school as there was this group of students reading the Hunger Games and I got curious. So when I visited the bookstore to look for a good book to read, I decided to buy the Hunger Games and I definitely found it very much worthwhile. I don't have a particular favorite scene but I like the part where Katniss and Peeta were in the parade for the Hunger Games.
Hi Cri! Yeah, I like that part, too! :)
Hi everyone, I'm Sedef. I don't remember where I found out about these amazing books ?? But I really loved all of them!
Mod

@Cri gosh nobody at my skewl has ever heard of the books not even the librarian!im the only one whos read them a..."
Oh then maybe you could be the one to sort of like promote the book! :D I think that's how it happened at my old school. One person read it and then her friend got curious and read it until a group of people got into it. XDD
Mod
Me: Really? What's it called?
Librarian: The Hunger Games. And the sequel just came out, Catching Fire. You'll be the first to get them. I just got it shelved. My daughter loved the first one.
Me: Cool. I'll take it.
Later that night...
Me: Okay, let's see what this is about...
*reads the back
Me: What? Does she think I'm a cold hearted killer or something?
Guess she made the right decision to give me the books. xD
Then, I gave it to my best friend who loved it. Everyone else thought I was some creeper for reading them. Then this year everyone started reading them. :\ Sigh. Ahead of the ball curve, I guess. Then, they're like "You should read this! It's soooo good!"

Hello I'm Soraya and i first discovered the hunger games at my local book club. This was a few years ago before borders shut down in England, and i went to a book club there. It was a brand new book and all the members got the recommended books discounted so i thought i'd give it a try - it was AMAZING!!!!! My younger sister also read it and since then we've been hooked and the read the sequals.I loved how original the idea was and how Collins was brave with her descriptions of the brutality and violence.
It's definately a favourite.
