My daughter is heavily into The Hunger Games.
When I watch it with her, I sometimes think that they are trying to depict a future in which liberalism gets everything it wants.
I think that author is pretty brilliant. Conservatives see conservative themes, liberals see liberal themes, girls like it, my guess is boys would like it too.
Hubby and I listened to them on audiobooks, they were very good. The first one is the best, imho. I mean you have to get beyond that whole children murdering children thing, of course, I can see how people would reject them because of that.
I thought the first movie was awful. If I hadn’t read the book I don’t think I would have understood at all what was going on.
They really should have gone the mini-series route with these books.
