Reading the first book in the "Hunger Games" trilogy, the title of which I'm too lazy to go and look for. I don't generally go in for "Young Adult" (I
hate that term!) books, but I got this in one of Amazon's sales a while back at a very low price, so I thought I'd have a go.
It's an "OK" read. Certainly not deserving of the hype that I've seen it get in some places. As I generally find with children's books, character development is minimal, and the whole thing seems rather shallow. I'm gritting my teeth at the first person narrative, which I loath.
Can you tell that I'm not terribly impressed by it?
