Books: The Hunger Games Trilogy

Okay, Okay, Okay - I realize that I just did a post on this but I just finished the entire trilogy and oh my goodness everyone should read it. It's truly amazing and so powerful! I've told people that it's along the lines of Harry Potter and Twilight but I was completely mistaken. It's far beyond both books (especially Twilight). It seems like such a book for adult audiences - its violent, bloody, terribly realistic and brutally honest. The underlying complexity of life and pain and the confusion, the difficultly of horrible circumstances. The hardships of all kinds of relationships. Gosh. It's just so powerful. There are many times where I have just bawled and laid in bed for hours reading. 

Now that I'm done I feel as if I have nothing to do...It really is books like these that make me want to dive into reading more. I've fallen in love with characters (ahem Peeta Mellark) and just became so involved with their lives I want more and more and more and more!! Now I wish I had more adventure in my life and not take any of it for granted. 

Seriously. Read the books and you'll understand. 
Love, 
ALPHA

P.S. I hope to god they do not f*ck this story up.
