books.

the hunger games trilogy.

wow, i read these in a whirlwind trip back to ca at the request of my bestie and her sister. we all seem to love distopia books, and what better than a teeny-bopper one with gobbs of romance but no sex?




there is never really a dull moment in any of the books. they are very fast paced, and extremely easy to read. it's amazing they are meant for a young audience, since the main subject mater is teenagers fighting till the death in a televised arena controlled by government officials who will do anything to make the games more entertaining.

the first book got me hooked, the second kept me interested, but the third was by far my favorite. besides all the annoying romance who will she choose shit, it had some really interesting commentary on modern warfare.

i definitely recommend it. they already have a movie in the making, unfortunately i hear it is only going to be pg, which is a little ridiculous since the concept is so dark but hopefully by the time they get to the final book they will kick it up a notch.
