The Hunger Games

Hey All,
I'm probably super far behind everyone, but I finally finished The Hunger Games series.

I LOVED this series... though I admit that the first and second books were better than the third. I had seen a preview for the movie coming out in March, and I thought I should read the books first so I had something to compare the movie to.

I burned through all three books in just a few days (which is really good, since I'm a terribly slow reader), and was overall impressed with the way it flowed. The books are written in present tense, which starts out tough for me, but I quickly forgot about it and it became more natural as I read through the series. Definitely a good one if you're looking for a book that is easy to read and intense at times. I'm giving it a 4 out of 5, just because the last book was slow-moving. :) Very good, though, for those of you who haven't read them yet!
