The Hunger Games

Have you read this book? This series of books?
It is our new obsession here in this house.
I've just read the first book, Delaney is reading the second book, we have ordered the third.
When I was told what the premise was, I didn't really want to read it. It sounded brutal and sad, but everyone was making such a big deal about it. Then Delaney read it and LOVED it. My curiosity got the best of me, I had to see what all the fuss was about.
I too LOVED it. I couldn't put it down.
I'm a little unsettled about the end of the first book and that is why I MUST read the second.
I'm HOOKED!

I wish there was a better way to explain it. Did you ever read Lord of the Flies? It's a classic I had to read in high school but everyone I ask says they haven't read it. It's a very similar concept.
I read the first book two years ago before anyone had heard of it so I didn't know anything about the storyline. It's so difficult to get people to understand it's not as awful as the premise sounds.
Going to see the movie tonight!
Oh yeah, read the second and need to finish the third. Obviously it's easier to put down than the first one was. I want to find out what happens but I got distracted and have been reading other books since.
