StarsKay Posted April 2, 2012 Author Share Posted April 2, 2012 I just finished the book! Without a doubt it leaves you wanting to know what happens next, i'll have to get the next one quickly :lol: Oh that's fantastic! Now you should see the movie and now I can say it won't disappoint (and also doesn't overlap in anyway whatsoever with the second book). I can already see you buying the final book right after you've finished the second one as that part in the story leaves you not only shocked but unbelievably hungry for more (pun intended, haha:D). I saw the movie two days ago, and I loved it. I mean yeah, it left out some stuff, but you have to do that. I cried in way too many places. When Rue is killed, wow, I knew it was coming but still fairly intense moment. Totally could hear a pin drop in the cinema theatre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really want to see the movie, but now i'm in the US and i'm afraid I won't understand everything they say :\ I know what's going to happen but it's still nice to understand what they say :P I think i'll buy the second and the third book together so I can keep on reading right after I finish the second book :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told myself I wasn't going to cry but when that came up I was all 'screw this I'm crying.' I also cried when Peeta was talking about how he met Katniss. :| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarsKay Posted April 5, 2012 Author Share Posted April 5, 2012 I finally bought Catching Fire :D That's wonderful to hear! In the past week, 3 others I know have started reading the trilogy and they are constantly raving about it. Just what I want to hear :-) Yeah, it was incredible how they made that scene. I told myself I wasn't going to cry but when that came up I was all 'screw this I'm crying.' I also cried when Peeta was talking about how he met Katniss. :| That was arguably my favourite part of the first book: Peeta revealing his love for Katniss. Love it! Too bad Rue had to die; I would've loved her character to persist a little longer though I'm being selfish as her sad and sudden death was pivotal in the rising revolts. I got to say, Suzanne Collins has a great imagination! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 I watched the movie on Wednesday (pretty good, although I got annoyed with a couple of idiots in the audience playing on their phone pretty much all the way though), and got the book trilogy on Friday to read whenever I get around to reading them.

StarsKay Posted April 9, 2012 Author Share Posted April 9, 2012 I watched the movie on Wednesday (pretty good, although I got annoyed with a couple of idiots in the audience playing on their phone pretty much all the way though), and got the book trilogy on Friday to read whenever I get around to reading them. A fellow coworker brought the book in today after hearing me ramble on about it a few weeks ago. She started reading it yesterday and already is halfway through the book, and is already planning on getting the trilogy as she already finds it quite addictive. I guess that's a long way if saying that once you've gotten around to reading it, don't make any other plans for the rest of the day! ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we shall wait and see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suzanafg Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I stumbled upon the series on a book shop website and they basically gave away the end of the first book in the description to the second book :shocked2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myxylivethelife Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 The Hunger Games Thread I'm sorry, but I felt like there should be (another) thread about the hunger games.

Imke Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I've merged this thread with the exisiting one and moved it to Entertainment & Arts. :) There's no need for two threads. I've read all three books too btw, in a few days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaw23 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I read all three books in a short amount of time last summer. Just before the movie came out in March, I re-read the entire series very slowly. I loved it the first time and loved it so much more the second time. I will read the books each time a new movies comes out!! There were some things changed, but Suzanne Collins helped with the screenplay, so I was okay for the most part of things taken out. A bit off topic: If you loved the Hunger Games Trilogy and are looking for another series that sucks you in as much, then try Divergent by Veronica Roth. It is AMAZING!!!! I love, love, love the Hunger Games, but I think I might love Divergent (and Insurgent) a smidge bit more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blakexy1125 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I havent read the whole thread but i loved the series, until the end, that ending was terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaw23 Posted July 10, 2012 Share Posted July 10, 2012 I havent read the whole thread but i loved the series, until the end, that ending was terrible. If you read the series again, the ending makes a little more sense. At first, I felt like she rushed through it (because I knew she was helping with the screenplay). But, upon re-reading (much slower through the second time), I changed my perspective on it a bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Rose Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 So the 3rd book is getting spilt into 2 movies. Typical Hollywood wanting to get more money out of people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
