Confession Alert: I never read the Potter series. But I have seen the first movie if that counts.
It took me a year to get around to take the plunge with the Hunger trilogy ... reluctantly since it was YA (young adult) sci-fi.
Not my thing.
But I had just finished So Much for That by Lionel Shriver and her other book, We Need to Talk About Kevin.
I was exhausted, a good exhaustion, but nevertheless, I needed something light.
So I dived into The Hunger Games and I haven’t come up for air yet!
This book is definitely a fast paced page turner story set in a postapocalyptic world that is filled with the complexities of human emotion. In a dystopian future state, a teenage girl must fight for her freedom – and her life.
Great characters and story arc.
A place and time, unfortunately, that I believe could actually happen to a future society.
But best, a powerful female protagonist.
And I so like that. You go girl!
Have you read it or plan to read it? What are you reading right now?
Have a beautiful day!
