Hey Kriss!♥ If it's the style of the writing that bothers you then you should be alright. There aren't any icky voiceovers or anything. The concepts there, the plot's there but it's not from Katniss' oh-so-teenage POV anymore.

ooooo "but it's not from Katniss' oh-so-teenage POV anymore." thanks! i think i will watch it because katsa pov really is what killed the books for me i think D: i kept thinking how id probably have loved it if it was more... not from her pov? whats the word for that XD

Yeah, a lot of people found it hard to read (or just annoying) because it was in the first person and the present tense. You don't have to deal with that in the film though so you might really enjoy it. You still see a lot of Katniss but you're not stuck reading her thoughts all the time.

I noticed that you said that but I have no idea who or what 'katsa' is so figured it was just a typo. What is it?

Yeah, do! I really hope you'll like it. It's a pretty cool dystopia. (:

TALKING TO KRISS: WHEN IT DOUBT, TYPO! lolol

Katsa is the main character in the book series I am reading at the moment. XD here! I like it so far, i just have minor peeves with how "a strong female character has to act like a MAN to be... a strong female!!" or something. But over all, so far, I realllllllllly love it!

Always safe to assume it's a typo, whoever the typist is. :3

That series sounds pretty intriguing though. I do tend to find it a bit frustrating when strong/ideal women are written as possessing stereotypically masculine traits though. So frustrating! But the series does sound like it would have potential. I might go see if there are audiobooks of it. ;D
