LaForce Likes #9

You may be wondering where I have been over the last week with my lack of posts. Well.... at night instead of making time for post writing I've been reading the Hunger Games series.

LaForce Likes number 9 is therefore the Hunger Games trilogy.

I had heard all the hype about Hunger Games and even saw some of the filming crew vans and such around uptown Charlotte but it never went past that. After some friends recently raved about the books and the movie, Eric and I went to see the movie a few weeks ago. The movie was great and reminded me a little of 1984 and Brave New World which are books I read in high school and liked.

So I went and bought the books and was completely engrossed, reading wherever and whenever I found time. I really enjoyed the series and I think my favorite book was the 2nd one. The 3rd wasn't as good as the first 2 in my opinion... the ending was a little disappointing although I can sort of understand why it ended like it did but it was a bit rushed for me. I will also say I liked the Twilight series more because the love story was more of a focus but I would definitely recommend reading the Hunger Games series! Hunger Games first book does draw you in faster than Twilight and is more thrilling.

Anyone else read the Hunger Games series? What did you think? Any one else enjoy Twilight series more or less? Would like to hear your thoughts!
