BOOKS!

Well, I'm reading Catching Fire (The Hunger Games #2). I'm 99% done! It's REALLY good!

finally, we talk about books on this page! I mean, we talk about everything else.

Haha! Is anybody here a Hunger Games fan? I just finished Catching Fire and it is SUCH a cliffhanger!

(view spoiler)[It ends like this: "Katniss, there is no District 12" isn't that just SO frustrating???!!!(view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

I didn't read all the books, but frankly, I didn't need to. I know the entire story just from talking to people about it.

I know right, Sugarbug!! I had Mockingjay right there so I could start reading it like it was the next chapter!

Yeah sugarbug the ending of CF was awesome! I heard the movie might have to be put off because Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen) has to be in X-Men (rolls eyes)

Gary Ross isn't directing :(

Poop. :(

I know. It's okay if they find a good director though..

Yeah. But if there's a bad director... *doesn't even want to say it*

XD

Ouch, I hope that they stay as true to the book as they did in the first one.

Yeah! But Madge wasn't even a character in the movie! How could they?

I get why she wasn't in the movie. I mean of course I wish she was but I don't think it took away too much.

It didn't take away anything!

Nope, I think it might make a more significant difference in the 2nd and 3rd movie. When (view spoiler)[ They burn the mayors house (hide spoiler)] (End of Catching Fire/ Beginning of Mockingjay.

Ahh. So true.

GO SHARKS!!!!!!!!

Not necessarily. If they have Maisilee Donilee then that could be significance enough. And why not show Katniss' house being (view spoiler)[ burnt instead (hide spoiler)]

That's true. But I thought she made a remark about (view spoiler)[ how even the mayor's house isn't safe from the hate of the capitol (hide spoiler)]

Yeah..

I am reading

Is it good? SOunds interesting.

THIS IS NONSENSE.
A group full of geeks and the last post in the books thread was April? :C

Anyways, the library system for where I live sucks and they don't really have anything good, and my mom said we'd probably go to the other library Friday, so I checked their website, and they have all the books I've bee looking for! C:


Oh, and sorry about hardly ever getting on Goodreads anymore.

Woah, you're right Mandy, this thread died in April!

I just finished reading Divergent (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/83...) and its sequal Insurgent (http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/11...)

SO good!

I just finished reading Fuzzy Nation (WHICH IS AWESOME), and now I'm re-reading books in A Series of Unfortunate Events. :)

I LOVE THAT SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm reading the Kissing Booth on Wattpad

I finished reading The Lord of the Rings. So good!!!

Re-reading Ella Enchanted for the zillionth time and just finished Catching Fire, which I enjoyed significantly more than the Hunger games. XD

I'm reading Monsters of Men, the sequel to The Knife of Never Letting Go and The Ask and the Answer

SOO GOOD. ARGH

I have The Knife of Never Letting Go right now, but I haven't read it yet.

I actually just finished reading Vesper, and I'm regretting not picking up the sequels like I was going too. :(

:(

Gonna. C:

I own the knife of never letting go but haven't read it yet...

I am reading nothing at the moment

I'm reading Mockingjay really slowly because I'm reading it simultaneously with someone else.

Do you like it better than you liked the first book? From what I remember, you weren't too fond of it XD

See, I liked Catching Fire a LOT more than the first one. XD I don't like Mockingjay as much as Catching Fire, but I like it more than Hunger Games.

I have to read 'Lord of the Flies' for school.

I need a book to read now. I haven't read a book in ages

How is that possible 0___O

I'm sorry, I can't even go a day without reading a book!

I've been so busy! I have about 2 - 3 hours of homework after school and I don't get home till late afternoon cause I live a while from school.

It's been pretty horrible
I'm starting to read 'The Great Gatsby"

Me too! I can barely read much anymore...;__;

Is it good?

I've read the first 3 pages haha. It seems like its going to be an interesting book. :)

(: Sure seems like it! My friends and I have made plans to go see the movie during the summer...the trailer looks really good :D
Then again trailers usually do unless you know the book and everything is really screwed up already just from the trailer...
Then you'll know the movie will be horrendous.

Good explanation haha

An author letting their book get made into a movie is like selling your soul to the devil.

I hate the Hunger Games. Haven't read the other two, probably because I so disliked the first one.

I mean, it's a fairly sensible plotline...but the writing? It's atrocious!

Really? I thought the writing was good, just the plotline was rather disturbing...
