Joe’s comments from the Mt. Mercy University 2012 group.

my favorite book so far is "Coldest Winter Ever." This was a crazy story of a family whose father and supporter is a drug dealer. This book will be made into a movie soon.

Harry Potter was by far my favorite book/books growning up. I read them all like three times and never told any of my friends because they would of made fun of me. I think i liked finding out about Harry's past as the books go on. Jk rowling does such a good job of revealing bits and pieces as the series goes on.

I pictured Haymitch way different, but i does make sense to have him a bit less of a slob. However i didn't like the actor because all i could think of is White Men Can't Jump while watching him. I did love the actress they used for Katniss and have a crush on her now.

I liked the movie once the games started. I thought that the capitol was way too corny, and that they did not portray how messed up life in district 12 is. The movie left out why people enter their names; to get food and stop their hunger.

I think young adult lit is so enjoyable because stories from people growing up are much more interesting than adults. Growing up is such a crazy time and the stories about kids going through this usually makes for incredible literature.
