I was on Goodreads recently and started trying to respond to a series of questions on 'The Hunger Games' books, not thinking that this probably wasn't a good idea.

I promptly regretted it: I have not read the third book yet (stupid of me, I know) and read a major spoiler.

I recently wrote a review of the (science fiction) novel, 'Code of Conduct', by Kristine Smith.

My review is titled, "Engaging!", and I gave this book 4 out of 5 stars/leaves.

My review can be found here: http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/Code-of-Conduct-Kristine-Smith/9780380807833-628496-Review.html.

I will be seeing 'The Hunger Games' tonight. I'll post a review of it here as well.

I have read the first two books of the trilogy and I really enjoyed them. (I gave 5/5 stars to the first and 4/5 stars to the second.) I expect I'll enjoy the film.

More to come on this later...
