The ending is forgettable. If you don’t mind slogging through teen angst and some unexplainable plot (hey, it’s a modern novel), go for it. Otherwise, listen to it on a long road trip or wait a few years for the uninspired movie adapatation. The ending was certainly uninspired…

No. Unless, of course, you like overly simplified writing about teens. Then, by all means, go for it.

Read them only if your sole other choice is Rush Limbaugh’s autobiography. The writing and plots get worse as the books go on. Book 3 was dreadful.

At the urging of my teen daughter i read all three and loved them. Best lierature in the world? Maybe not. But an awesome allegory of the oppressed organizing and challenging the rich and powerful. A new context to explain revolution for those too young or too asleep to have participated in any uprisings recently. Good for yhe soul.

Absolutely! It’s not great literature true, but I really cared about Katniss and had to know how it turned out. And besides, it’s easy reading and won’t take you long.

Yes, it’s yummy and irresistible..I have a theory, the Hunger Games storyline orginated in China, because like Chinese food a half-an-hour later after reading it, you’re hungry again for the next course.. BTW, longtime fan, and I always thought you had a sort of a (non-closeted)Katherine Hepburn-thing aura about you… peace out!

You have too _ it’s like the Potter series you have to see it to the end. Katniss is the ultimate character during a revolution. Easy Reading. You could finish on a trip to a gig! Love ya “Katherine Hepburn” – JoJo ptown
