And don't watch Divergent if you have read those books...they will disappoint as well.

- Latest Review: "30th Century: Escape" by Mark Kingston Levin
One thing I really loved about The Hunger Games, was the vivid quality in which Suzanne Collins paints her world. I absolutely LOVED Katniss. Her inner thoughts, her actions, her will to survive. I normally don't take to books in which romance is downplayed, but this series is the exception. While the romance/love triangle is definitely there, it isn't the focus of the book, and it's way more complicated than most.
My favorite book in the series is Mockingjay. Where Mockingjay takes us is somewhere entirely different than where we started, and I really enjoyed that. It definitely has more of a sci-fi feel for me to it than the other books, and it in my opinion is the best in the series.
The movies weren't bad for me, considering Suzanne Collins helped with adapting the screenplay. Obviously some things were changed, and glossed over- after all you can't fit EVERYTHING in the book into a 2 hour movie, so the adaptations where things were changed, I felt was just. I think Mockingjay and Catching Fire were more along the lines of sticking closer to their source material than the first installment.
One of my all time favorites!
