The Hunger Games, Catching Fire & Mockinjay

Suzanne Collins

Oh my goodness!  I loved these books.  They are not life changing, but they are very entertaining.  I put off reading them forever, I thought it would be too sad and weird to read about kids trying to kill each other.  It sounds awful, but it really isn't it is a great series.  Go get them and read them, but wait until after Christmas if you have as much to do as I do.  Because once you start you will want to sit and read until you are done with all 3.  Luckily, they are young adult fiction so you can power through all 3 in probably a day and a half!  I love that it has a strong female lead that doesn't need a boy to make her feel complete, Bella.  I like that she struggles with figuring out the difference between good friends and boyfriends, that is hard!  A good book I would be glad for my little Sadie to read, oh wait I have two boys they will want to read The Lord of the Rings....

Side note-Some friends told me about a phone app that lets you share good books to read, but I can't remember what it is, do y'all know?
