So, I just read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Book 1 of a trilogy. I couldn't seem to put it down. Though it's 374 pages, it took me 4 days to read. I think that's pretty good considering I have 2 kids and hardly get a moment to do anything for myself.
Rue and Katniss's relationship captured my heart and was one of the many moments I found myself tearing up in the book. I cannot wait to read Catching Fire and see how everything pans out with Gale and Peeta.
The beginning of the book had me hooked when it talked about her life in District 12. It makes me think of how our world might be for our grandchildren or great grandchildren.
The ending was left open to make me anxious to read the next book.
This I think was a great book to start my reading in life. This is the FIRST book I have ever read front to back. (Even in school.) I am so very proud of myself and look forward to many more adventures in reading.
