The Hunger Games Plot Summary |
P.S. readers I do try to set up my synopsis link to the authors sites. With the HP books this was not possible so I had to scour the internet for something neutral and wikipedia won out most times. With me moving on i'm trying to revert back to the author sites so yall will have the chance to look for sequels or other works by that author
So in a mere 4 days I have succumbed to the requests of my FB friends and my one lonely vote on my blog poll and read The Hunger Games. I will admit that I wanted to see the movie but, felt that I should read the book first and I am so glad I did. After reading books that I already knew how the ending came about, I forgot how good a new story can be. Routing for whichever side you want to win and staying up until the wee hours of the morning promising yourself it will stop when you finish this chapter. Due to this temptation and lack of sleep I finished this book in three days! I loved it in a sick and disturbing way. What these people do is gut wrenching and how people stand by and let this happen is ridiculous. Not saying that people are not capable of it of course (holocaust) but I like the world of people not condoning the death of so many for outright entertainment. Alas then there would be no storyline right! Some of my favorite parts are that the chicks are just as bad-ass as the dudes if not more. The main character I also love because she is essentially the dude in this whole story: hard, independent, ruthless at times unlike most girl vs. boy stories. The action is good and mostly continuous and, even when there is a lull, the story is so intense I don't get bored or even really notice the lull. Overall great read and while I despise sequels I do look forward to seeing what happens next to the bad-ass
Good for future apocalyptic action adventure chick
