I took the plunge.  I put down The Hunger Games last night after a mere three days of reading in between finals, and now I’m hooked.

I plan to see the movie this weekend, then go out and buy the other two books.   I’m a little disappointed to see that the actress playing Katniss is (obviously) a typical Hollywood blonde. Kinda takes away the image in my mind, but whatever I guess.

I’m such a follower. 😉

 

follow up: I finally saw the movie, and they made the actress a brunette.  Fit so much better with the image in my head.  However, I’m pretty disappointed with the movie.  In the book, it really was suspenseful as the reader followed Katniss through saving Peeta’s life, etc. The movie cut out all those parts.

Back to reading more age-appropriate books I guess.
