>Never really liked reading>friend keeps telling me to read this book>finally give in and read it>I am now almost finished with the bookI fucking love this book. i hope the other 2 are just as good if not better.
yup.welcome to the world of intellectuals.
I hate that series. The sister dies in the end anyway, what was the fucking point?
>>2204589>intellectuals>pandering YA genre garbagePlease.
>>2205956 The sister dies in the end
>>2205960HEYSOMEONE SHOULD HAVE POSTED THAT IN A SPOILER
The first book is flawless, imo.The next two books were kind of disappointing to me, though.
Was going to make a new thread but duplicate file entry detected.Have read Battle Royale before and liked it, is this just that but with more action and less philosophy?I can't really imagine a YA novel actually being all that intellectually stimulating.
>>2207481It's not worth your time. The character's don't evolve and the author didn't know how to end the series so she just killed off everyone but the MC and the love interest. We had a big thread on it that should still be floating arund somewhere. Someone had posted a few chapters.
Really? This book was shit. Only bad thing that happens to the main character is that she is forced into the games, but then she's proficient at hunting, using a bow, building shelter, finding water, healing wounds, I can go on forever. She is goddam Bear Grylls in a 14 year old girls body. Forced symbolism. The book explicitly states something along the lines of "Oh these birds remind me of my dead dad and gives me the strength to live." The whole idea of "sponsors" = deus ex machina Rue getting randomly killed off because the author probably couldn't think of a way to have Katniss kill her. AND not only does Katniss win the game, despite all odds, she also manages to win with Peeta alive!Fuck this shit book.
>>2207507>Bear Grylls>efficient at survival techniquesGood one.If you ever get stuck out in the wilderness, follow Bear's advice if you want to die.
>>2207506Are we talking just the first book or the whole series?>>2207507How do you feel about Battle Royale?
>>2207481It's basically Battle Royale lite. Less explicit violence and less philosophy.
Hunger Games = amazing tierCatching Fire = god tierMockingjay = good tier
It's a good series, op. I enjoyed it and am excited for the movie. The first book is the best imo.>>2207542Hunger Games=Amazing TierCatching Fire=Shit tier. Felt super forcedMockingjay= Decent tier
