Suzanne Collins has rocked my world.
Three times actually. First the Hunger Games, then Catching Fire, and finally Mockingjay. When my roommate first recommended the series to me I laughed because it was a book written for young adults. Luckily, boredom encouraged me to give it a shot, and I ended up reading the first book in one sitting. Yes, one 5 hour sitting. My body was numb and numb again, but I didn't care!
I had to know what was going to happen to Katniss!
The concept is genius. The writing could be better I think, or maybe I just don't have a taste for tweenaged novels anymore. Each chapter kept me on edge and I felt so close to the characters. First I loved Peeta, then I hated him. Then I loved him again. Katniss I loved mostly through the series, and at the very very end I literally shed tears. Gale I never stopped loving. I think I'm in love with Gale.
Damn you Suzanne Collins, for leaving me hanging. We need more Hunger Games books!
