The Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins

Hey readers, My hair is up cause its so HOT outside i could melt and Yes im holding a library copy of MockingJay. I do not actually own any of the Hunger Game books, however, i have read all of them. The reason I even know about the stories is because after the bookstore i worked at closed my boss continued to receive ARCs. One of them was the Hunger Games. I believed i asked to keep it and was declined. The next year she got the 2nd book also as an ARC. This year i had to settle for the library but it was worth it.

  Over all its an awesome series, but like most series the last book falls short of expectations. Its not the authors fault. It is the readers imagination that takes hold of a story set before them. As the mind wanders readers think of many possible endings. Endings are never fun. Its the same as saying good bye to someone you may never see again. Bittersweet really.

 BUT read it anyways. It is an awesome book that may spurt and interest in politics (may, it didnt work for me but it might for someone younger). I just recommended this book to a friend whose 12 year-old son is a reluctant reader. The goal is to find a book that will spark and interest in reading. This is a type of series that is capable of that. Im sorry if I am being vague. If you have any questions leave a comment and i will try to reply ASAP
