I read the first Hunger Games book. It was pretty good. But I still haven't moved to the rest and not sure if I ever will. Sounds kind of depressing. And I detest books written in Present tense. I would like to see the movie, the trailer looks interesting.
I also read the first Twilight book....it was pretty boring. I saw the first two movies, the first one was pretty bad. The second was incredible....incredibly boring that is. I could NOT believe how boring it was.
I like action, I like vampires, I like sex....all three together are fine....but you have to have an author who actually knows how to write.
Although, didn't the Twilight author write The Host? Now THAT book I LOVED. Have a hard cover on my keeper shelf and if she publishes more of that, I'll read them. Seriously good!
