However, I have been noticing a lot of hype about the book in the blogosphere. I'm glad that you enjoyed reading it. Sometimes books that start off slow end up being the most enjoyable.

So I'm glad you included it in your "things you might want to know." I usually tell parents that it sounds like a violent concept (what with the whole "fight to the death" thing) but it is not a violent or graphic book.Rebecca @ The Book Lady's Bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01985624269551630736noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-40168318348348929352009-09-01T05:50:17.387-07:002009-09-01T05:50:17.387-07:00I haven't read Hunger Games yet but I've h...I haven't read Hunger Games yet but I've heard great things.Tales of Whimsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10938494589922620170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-76531972906345044142009-09-01T05:47:44.757-07:002009-09-01T05:47:44.757-07:00Yay, I'm glad it isn't disappointing - I h...Yay, I'm glad it isn't disappointing - I hate it when sequels are!

It arrived early and I devoured it on Sunday. I preferred it slightly over The Hunger Games too as it was so clever how she sustained the action outwith the Games (and the twist within that) and the subject matter was even more hard-hitting. I also agree that the final line was perfect, shocking and emotive.Paperback Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14579608422235511054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-25667745259500447132009-09-01T02:40:24.607-07:002009-09-01T02:40:24.607-07:00I've been begging my Scholastic rep to PLEASE ...I've been begging my Scholastic rep to PLEASE find me the audio book for this one (which is the way the kids and I read Hunger Games). I was quite distressed to see that EW gave this book a "C". I am thinking that no matter what, I will love this book because I am invested in the characters. Hunger Games was by far THE best YA we read this year!Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.com
