The Hunger Games books were the worst good books I've ever read. It was such torture reading them and having to know what happens. While there was so much violence I love Katniss Everdeen's bravery. Whenever people asked me about the series after I read them, I would always say "don't read them, they are awful. But you have to read them because I want to talk about them." They are definitely books I wouldn't recommend to my children. When I was a reading aide, I was surprised to see how many really young elementary students checked these books out. Of course, that is for their parents to monitor.
I want to go see this movie with my husband sometime soon. People may think I'm twisted because I want to watch these movies about children killing each other. The thing is, that's obviously not why I watch these movies. I watch them because they represent the kind of courage and bravery I admire.
