Now that the games are under way, I am officially hooked. I like the way Collins doesn't portray Katniss as some ditzy lovesick teenager. Go, Katniss, go!

Only one chapter left. My only complaint is that I really don't care about any romance, but that's a minor complaint. Besides, what young adult novel doesn't have the kids falling in love? At least it's not just sentimental garbage like a lot of romance stories

Only five players left and things are getting good! I was really surprised by one of the characters' deaths. I was kind of expecting Katniss and a few other characters to eventually rebel against the Games, leading into them being on the run from the Capitol for the rest of the trilogy. Now I'm wondering if the next two books feature different characters, because if not is Katniss going to picked every single time?

Let the games begin! I'm enjoying it thus far, even though I find Collins "voice" to be a bit impersonal. The world she's created is an interesting one, but Katniss and Peeta don't have the most exciting personalities thus far.
