Reading recommendation: The Hunger Games trilogy

3 October 2011 | 0 Comments

I’ve just finished Suzanne Collins’ gripping utopian trilogy (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay).

The first two books were absolute pages turners. I slowed a bit on the third, but found the ending satisfying.

It’s worth jumping on the bandwagon for this one, as The Hunger Games in particular will be a huge discussion topic when the fim version comes comes out next year (teaser trailer looks promising). If you’ve read the series, let me know what you think. 🙂

I’ve written brief reviews/thoughts on all three novels at Goodreads (the first doesn’t have spoilers, but the other two do, so don’t read them until you’ve read the books!):

About Me

I’m the author of the Rephaim series and The Undercurrent.

For my day job, I’m a writer-journalist-professional communicator, where my writing involves a lot less profanity.

I grew up in regional South Australia and now live in the Scenic Rim with my husband and a retired greyhound.

If you’re interested in how I came to land a publishing deal, you can read the short version in this post from August 2011. There’s a longer version (in a guest post) here.
