Most of my blogging friends have been raving about Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games series for as long as I can remember. In fact some of them (I think Lynsey from Narratively Speaking and Caroline from Portrait of a Woman were the main instigators!) insisted I bought the whole trilogy back in 2010 but for some reason I never got around to reading it. I think I was probably a bit nervous because everyone had raved about it so much - I didn't want to be the only one who didn't like it!
Well, it's only a month until the Hunger Games film releases and I've been dying to see it ever since I first saw the trailer so I thought I really should get around to reading at least the first book. I finished it last week & guess what - it lived up to the hype! I'll be posting my review later today but in the meantime I wanted to share the movie trailer here (it gives me a good excuse to watch it again lol).
Make sure you keep an eye on the Hunger Games Facebook page for all the latest information. There will also be updates on both the Scholastic Twitter page and the UK Hunger Games Twitter page.
So who else is dying to see this film? I'm sure I'm not the only one!
Sarah, it won't let you watch it on your blog. So went to Youtube, and it was fantastic. I can't wait to read it.
ReplyDeleteI haven't it either. The film looks fab. Must look at getting the book. x
ReplyDelete@ Viv - I'm not sure why the video doesn't work on the blog but at least you were able to watch it on youtube :o) I'm really looking forward to watching the film!
ReplyDelete@ Susan - I thought I was the last person to read the book so it's quite nice to see that I'm not lol. I can't wait to see the film & I'd definitely recommend the first book :o) I'll be reading the next two soon
