Most likely you have, but I have just gotten my hands on these books and I am completely enthralled by Suzanne Collins' characters and world. How have I not read these before this week? I am so late to the party. At least I am right on time for the release of the third and final book next month. Perhaps it's a good thing I have waited so long, now I don't have to wait a long time between books.
I went to the bookstore earlier this week and found a used copy of The Hunger Games for $5. With all the hype, I couldn't pass that up. I am so glad I didn't. I read it all in a night. Today I went back and got Catching Fire. I couldn't wait any longer than a couple days. I tried. I even started another book. It will just have to wait now. I have already started Catching Fire and will probably read it all night.
Anyway, those are the books that came into my house this week. What did you get?
I was late on the bandwagon with these--bought them for my daughter for Christmas and it took her months to decided to read them, but she loved them, and I really liked the first one
I love it when I hear that someone has read The Hunger Games for the first time.I have yet to find anyone who hasn't been caught up in the hype. So glad you love them too.
I thought I was the last one to have read these books. Didn't realize there were so many others who still haven't read them. You all need to go find a copy. :) They are actually really good.
this one is in my pile for a while
ReplyDeleteHere's Mine
I still have not read these either...LOL enjoy
ReplyDeleteI haven't read these either but everyone raves about them! Maybe I will be lucky and find a used copy like you!
ReplyDeleteI have both of those books, but haven't read them yet. My husband loved them and is anxiously awaiting Mockingjay.
ReplyDeleteAt least the stories will be fresh in your mind when you get the 3rd one. Enjoy!

ReplyDeleteI haven't read these yet either. I don't know if they are for me. I know everyone raves about them. I may give them a try one day.
ReplyDeleteFrom one Mari to another... I also haven't read these books - I'm waiting for a close friend to read it to say it's a must read.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are enjoying the series!
Have a great week, Mari

ReplyDeleteI just finished both of these last week. Can't wait for the 3rd one!
