Just to share - I just finished the Hunger Games series, and I found it to be really enjoyable. I particularly liked the first book. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Just my two cents!

17. The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao
18. The Hunger Games
19. Catching Fire
20. Mockingjay
finally! after few months battling whether i should or should not read The Hunger Games, i chose to read it..
well, the book is completely a hype..the first book is good, then it goes downhill from there..the third book being the least of the three..SPOILER AHEAD![ BIG BIG SPOILER: well, the author kills every person who i think play important roles in the novel and brushes the killing off easily..i mean, she kills Cinna off without even tell the reader how Cinna is killed..she just mentions that he died during an interrogation..i cant accept it..and Katniss agrees to the Hunger Games proposed by President Coin?! are you kidding me? and Katniss ends up with Peeta because Gale works somewhere else?so much for looove, Gale..and Prim is killed! just.like.that. and Finnick. and and and President Snow whom i think is the main antagonist, but at the end he dies because of a) being trampled or b) laughed and get choked or something???please]
ok, this trilogy is not that gooood..overrated, if i must.but, i should give an applause for the first book because at least there's less people dying and well, it's good, even..just the 2nd and the 3rd..urghhh

most of the books that I've read are quite satisfying, and i have another favourite author! *Cathy Glass*
and, this is the first time I've read a book by Nicholas Sparks, i wouldnt say i was disappointed(i gave the book 4 stars, mind you), but the ending just kill me! if that is what true love really is, hmmm...
the other day, i was thinking of buying the Hunger Games series, but i still had my doubts.in my experience, books with much hype would surely disappoint me greatly, like A Thousand Splendid Suns..
i think i would like to try another Nicholas Sparks's..his writing is really good..
great, i am babbling!
btw, Salam Maulidur Rasul semua!walaupun, dah terlambat beberapa hari..
