no reason i don't know how "young adults" can do it
i'm reading this book in increments because it's all i can handle, and i'm a not-so-young adult

did IGG mention this is going to be massive!
the film comes out in March and i'm looking forward to seeing it.

the girl looks the part but the two guys don't look like i imagined.

if you've not read the series it is BRILLIANT. Suzanne_Collins is a great author and this series should be enjoyed by everyone.
don't be put off that it souns like battle_royale - it's a great twist on this theme but done very well.

i read this series after a long time of ignoring it for its battle_royale similarities, and i wish i had read it straight away. but on the plus side i now own the trilogy in the suave black cover set:

Beautiful books, great writing and (hopefully) a great film.

no reason essentially, it's about a bunch of kids who are selected and put in an arena to kill each other

falling_alone i read it in a hospital emergency room, waiting by my grandmother's bedside.
my room mate thought that was a pretty heavy choice for such a grim atmosphere.

haven't these been out for quite some time though? is the movie the cause of the sudden spike in popularity?

IGG They have been out for a few years, the film is going to push the popularity up and will be the new 'Twilight' *sigh*

Not a fan of Twilight.
These books are well written though and it pains me that it's going to be 'Team Gale' and 'Team Peeta' when that's not the point of the story!

Stupid Twilight and it's rabid obsession with love triangles.

no reason requesting the whole nerdy "SPOILER ALERT" warning before any further talk

(not that anything has really been spoiled but i'm only on about page 100 of the first book)
