was pretty dang awesome! I read the bulk of it in one day - on the car ride home from Utah because my mom is super possessive of her car and only lets my dad drive. This left me free to read for hours on end. It was great! Total page turner. It's written in the first person, which bugged Sean, but I didn't have a problem with it. I finished it and immediately dove into this one:
the next in the series. It is just as good! I'm about half-way through and we don't have any plans this weekend so I'm hoping to finish it up.Final analysis: Put these two next on your reading list!! [The third is due out this fall.]
PS: For those who have read them, I have yet to decide if I'm "Team Peeta" or "Team Gale". Maybe after I finish the second one. Thoughts??
PPS: I realize I didn't really give any information regarding the plot. It's kinda hard to explain in one or two sentences... If you really want to know, leave a comment. Otherwise, just take my word on it's awesomeness!

Good ol' Wikipedia to the rescue! I will have to check it out. :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hunger_Games
I have read those books also! Very good. Like you said quite the page turner. Im excited to see what happens in the next one. But I agree. Not sure which team :) I am voting for. :)
I love those books!! I have actually pre-ordered the MockingJay which comes out in August. The plot is very hard to describe, and I, like you have not yet decided whether it should be Team Peeta or Team Gale. I can say that they definitely left me "hungry" for more (oh I'm soooo funny!)
I like Peeta more than Gale..but still can't decide! So excited for the next book!! It's going to be great!
I had a student who kept telling me that I had to read it. I have rarely loved a young adult book as much as this. It is one of my all time favorites. If you want a list of more great YA reads let me know.
I've heard good things about this series. I have chosen not to read it yet so that I can read all three in a row without having to wait for the third one to come out. I did that with Harry Potter and it was great.
