Which Hunger Games book did you like best?

Post Reply New Topic

I wasn't sure where to post this. I thought about the adolescent forum, but adults are reading it too, I thought about writing/art/music form, but this book is even popular for non-readers so people may miss this thread who enjoyed the books because they don't normally check that forum. So mods, if you want move this, feel free to do so, I won't be offended.

I liked the second book the best, I liked the cliffhanger ending and it seemed like it was the fastest-paced book to me. I thought the first one was a bit slow at the start but it got better and was pretty exciting. The third was one was good, but I didn't like the ending much, if anyone wants to read why, here is my blog on it, I don't want to post it here because I don't want anyone who wants to read it to see the ending:

Mockingjay Ending: (Spoilers)

So, what did you like and not like about the books?

To be honest, I liked all of them equally. It is a continuous story, after all.

yeah i usually just think of a book series as the same book. Main exception I can think of is the inheritance cycle. The last book isn't near as good. I am glad I read it but it was a let down.

Yes, but still, even in single books, there are certain chapters I like better than others.

I usually don't even notice the seperation of chapters.

REALLY? Is that how you are supposed to read books? I really disliked "The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime" because there were no chapters. I pretty much read books according to chapters. I mean, I usually don't stop anywhere I place, I have to read the whole chapter first. I assumed everyone read books this way. Up until now. But as usual, I am probably the weird one.

haha there is no right way to read books. I usually am reading an ebook, so it saves my place (well it is supposed to, once in a while it doesn't). But I remember back in second grade that I would just stop randomly, I usually don't stop at the end of a chapter unless we were supposed to for school. What else would old fashioned book marks before?

OK, so everyone is different. It's interesting how we assume everyone does simple things like us. I guess I sort of knew someone might not pay attention to chapters, but I automatically assume that's how people would do it because that's the way I do it.

But do you see what I am saying? it is all the same story. Harry Potter is too, yeah he is different ages or in different grades, but I think of it as all the same.

I like the one about that stuff.

I liked only the first book, the other two were just additions. But I enjoyed King's "The Running Man" and "The Long Walk" much more I didn't like it that in the books people had such weird names - it was, as if the whole thing was taking place in a different dimension, rather than in our world (even if set in a really very distant future). It amused me that at one point Katniss thought to herself that Glimmer had a weird name, lol, it's not like she herself was a Mary or a Sarah.

Yes, I am just saying I PERSONALLY, don't think of books that way.

i like the hunger pains

I recently watched the movie and read the book every now and then - a minor obsession of mine But it's already gone.
