Katniss never tried to fashion herself into a symbol of resistance against the repressive regime of President Snow and the Capitol, but unwittingly, that is what she's become. Secreted away in the underground structures of the District 13 she had been taught to believe had been destroyed 75 years b...

When you win the Hunger Games you're supposed to be set for life. Unless the Panem government decides the Games need a new twist. Katniss and Peeta have become celebrities, living in the District-12 Victor's Village with their new neighbor Haymitch. They've announced to all of Panem that they ar...

I've already expressed my vegan objections here, and they didn't go away, but I won't dwell. I will probably come back to this when I review Catching Fire (which I started yesterday). One of the primary questions that comes up when I read a dystopian like this one is whether its premise is plausi...

Hmmm. I'm not really sure what to say about this. It started out pretty slow. I took issue with all the lies that were being told. Katniss still seemed petty and shallow to me. I love Haymitch. I want more of this man. I don't know, this just wasn't as exciting as The Hunger Games. Although the endi...

Okay, this was a lot of fun. I did enjoy this a lot but I feel the need to do a book vs. movie because my biggest complaint about this book is Katniss and Peeta.In the movie, it seems like Katniss is really starting to develop feelings for Peeta and everything between them is genuine. In the book, K...

I tried. A lot of people recommended me this book since I liked Divergent but it was very difficult to finish it.The main idea was okay. The United States are now splitted into 12 districts and controlled by The Capitol. The districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surre...

I'd tried a few times to pick up this book to read. I listened to the first two in the series on audiobooks during cross-country road trips that my husband and I took - so it felt strange to then pick up the third and read it in physical form. Finally, I got my hands on a copy of the Mockingjay aud...
