i so loved these books. couldn´t put them down a second. I read both in..almost 2 days.

I love badass!katniss and though I wish she would decide who she like more. Gale or Peeta. (I´m all for Peeta, though Gale is cute too)

Can´t wait for the last book. Hope it will be as good as the other two (and I don´t doubt that XD)

I'm all Peeta too. Gale is nice and all but I love Peeta. He cares so much.

Yeah I hope it will be long haha and solve everything. The author said that President Snow smelling like blood is important and I can't wait to find out why!

oh yes.. he´s the "i-care-for-you-the-rest-of-my-life"-type and I love how he enters the hunger games again just to protect katniss. ;O;

did she say this? hmm.. I guess there is a lot more westill don´t know about so I bet it will be very exciting!

I really like the Hunger Games, but then again, she stole so much from Batte Royale, it's way too obvious.
And she's lucky that not many people, let alone young adults, know about BR or any Japanese novel apart from something by Haruki Murakami maybe, so she can get away with it.

idk, I obviously like the characters and all and it is well written, but even the end of the first book is the same as the end of BR, come on Suzanne Collins...

Ah I didn't know that either. :| I liked the books on their own but I didn't know about Battle Royale so I can't say anything about that.

Yeah I looked some comparisons up online and it seems similar but it's not like this kind of thing is new (Lord Of The Flies etc.)

I thought there is a movie? It's still in pre-production, no director/actors/etc. attached but still! It exists.

And aughhhhh Mockingjay ;A; I am placating myself by reading fic, although inevitably I happen across lemons and end up laughing through the awkwardness of loveyousomuch!Peeta and idkwhatsgoingon!Katniss.

Well yes of course but not a movie that you can watch haha It's not green lit though as far as I know.

lol oh god I don't even dare to look up fanfiction. The message boards on Mockingjay.net are bad enough with the ship wars loll
