A couple of quick reviews, I’m playing catch up…

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

After watching the movie on vacation this year, I was immediately hooked into this series. This book has been on my to read pile forever, so I grabbed a copy from the library & I think I read the book in one night, immediately requested the next book & read that immediately as well. To say I was enjoying the book would be an understatement.

The book’s been reviewed a hundred times, so I’m not really going to say much other than the fact that this was definitely my favorite read for 2012, & this was the book that got me back into reading, after not touching a book for most of the past few months.

Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Like the first book in the series, this book has been reviewed a bunch of times & I don’t have anything new to add, so I won’t write a lengthy review. I read this book immediately after watching the movie & reading the first book in the series & loved it as much as I loved the first one. I couldn’t believe my eyes as I read the book & watched the story unfold, & when it was over I sobbed because I had to wait to get the next book to read.

Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this book about a week after reading the first two book in the series, I had to wait to get the book in from the library. It was the longest week in recent history!

I was so excited to see how the series would end, and I admit – I was definitely a little disappointed with this one. I still LOVED it, but it didn’t have quite the same amount of, I don’t quite know, flavor? that the other two books had. There was just a little something something missing, and instead of reading the book in one night like I did with the first two, it actually took me a couple of nights.

I admit to be dying to reread the whole series again, however, because I suspect that rereading this book a second time will give me new insights into the book.
