the hunger games

I never really liked movies or books that were overly fictitious (or even a tad bit fictitious), but in recent days my feelings have changed.  I was introduced to the Hunger Games trilogy and finished the last book on Tuesday.  The series is made up of three books; The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and The Mockingjay - and they are ALL amazing.  

 If you have the time, and you do not need much because these books are very easy to get through, read them.  There is a movie coming out about them in March, so you have plenty of time, and I highly recommend reading the books before you see the movie.  

 As much as I want to talk about things, I don't want to ruin anything.  I will say however, that I hope you enjoy reading about Katniss, Prim, Peeta, Gale, Haymitch, and Cinna - those are just some of the characters.  How cool are those names?

 I read the actual books too.  I have yet to make the switch from book to Kindle.  As great as it would be to shlep around that lightweight machine, I don't know if I can give up flipping actual pages.
