Addicted to Reading discussion

I'm only halfway through, but WOW, it's amazing, and I recommend it to everyone, 5 stars, no question

nooooooooooooooooooo, Cinna, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Are you only haflway through? I've read the whole series.
I felt so sorry for Cinna. I reckon that she named her son that (although they didn't say names I think her son was Cinna Haymitch Mellark and her daughter was Primrose Rue Mellark)

well done hannah thank you very much if im only half way through catching fire (which ive finished btw) i obviously DONT know that they have kids

Why would she name her son Haymitch? I know that he kept her alive but she's waken him from a hangover with water many times and she hates him. He also called her a dead slug.

Yea, but she also lives him and treats him like a father figure. Anyway, who else is she gonna name him after?

I dunno. Maybe GALE. I think that would be much sweeter.

Yeah, sure, name your son after the guy who murdered your sister. Great idea.

*GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP* YOU'VE JUST RUINED EVERYTHING FOR ME YOU EVIL MERDE

Don't be crass.

well don't ruin books for me.

Crass-adj(of persons) so unrefined as to be lacking in discrimination and sensibility

Hannah- (proper noun) somebody who reads books before others just so they can ruin it for them, although legend says that Hannahs think they are helping people by telling them what happens in the book, saving that person from having to read the book in question. Known to distress primary schoolers with shouts of "merde" and "peoples


Emily-(proper noun)a person who enjoys or wishes to wear jackets with both arms sewn to each other as they see them as a superior fashion item. Also known to live in one-roomed houses with cushions lining all walls. Furniture is looked down upon and is considered "uselsess." Specialises in evil laughs

Jessica-(proper noun) a person who is assigned to Hannahs and Emily to try and maintain them, but this usually backfires and ends up with her being just as insane as them all. Not recommended to be near for too long, is extremely good at evil laughs. Could be said to be the worst of both worlds as she spends an unhealthy amount of time with EMILY AND hANNAH

(EXCERPTS FROM THE WALKING DICTIONARY-private joke, Hannah!)

Lol, that is slightly true.

SLIGHTLY?

You just caused me to laugh, that was so funny em. You said it so matter-a-factly, like it was a fromal guide to us. it is very true, I'm the best at evil laughs(Guy can now laugh just like me) and I try to maintain you guys.

Emily-(Proper Noun) Is known to exaggerate other peoples insanessosity but legend has it that she is more crazy herself. She does actually live in a looney bin that is cushioned at all sides and she bangs on the walls screaming like a monkey all day. Wearing a disgrace-against-fashion-beige-suede-blazer WITH THE ARMS STITCHED TOGETHER!!!

Hannah-(Proper Noun) She tries to stop Emily from her antics and tries to rescue her from the men in white coats but she completely and utterly fails. Emily hijacks her brain and cause Hannah to loose all her memory (Oh No!) and smartness (Yippee!) Hannah then is no longer right all the time. (Double Yippee!)

Jessica-(Proper Noun) Busts into the white cushioned room, knocks out the men in white coats (Rose Style) and rescues Hannah. She then ventures to the source of the problem (Emily) and saves her too. She then nursed them back to health and becomes their friend. (PLEASE BE WARNED: THERE IS STILL A GIGANTIC TOUCH OF INSANESSOSITY IN THEIR MINDS BECAUSE JESSICA'S BRAIN-FIXING SKILLS AREN'T GREAT BECAUSE, REALLY SHE NEVER WENT TO UNIVERSITY ANS STUDIED SCICOLOGY. sHE ENDED UP STUDYING ZOOLOGY BY MISTAKE. (SHE GETS MIXED UP EASILY).

We should have a discussion for dictionary entries. I'll make one.

yes yes yes XXXXXXOOOOO

You have to watch the Catching Fire movie trailer everybody!

Its brilliant isnt it?

Yayayayayayayayayayayayayay!!!

Can't wait either. Its the one place where I make the exception of watching before reading.

Hmmm, I've already read The Hunger Games 5 times (I have a copy) and Catching Fire and Mocking Jay twice.

i haven't read or seen hunger games. but i plan to. i think watching is easier than reading. i have a lot more books to read. whatcha think?

Watching may be easier, and I certainly recommend doing it first- reading it ruins the movie- but you should definitely read them, too. There are lots of themes and ideas that the movie isn't able to show.

mostly, i start hating the filmemakers after watching a film based on a book i've read. lol

what about naming her son after her actual father?

Did that happen? I can't remember, but if she did, I love her forever.

I think it is the best one in the whole series

I can't decide; I never like the second book of any series, but the first and last are usually equally good.

HG and City of Bones are the only movies based on books that I've read that haven't been put downs. Hg changed the storyline a tiny bit, and City of Bones missed out the Simon-turning-into-a-rat part, but apart from that, they were great. The Twilight movies are a different story. Twilight and New Moon both sucked and are kinda boring. Eclipse was great and the Breaking Dawn movies are awesome.

I have a question...Who is Seneca Crane?I just can't remember...

I can't remember either...

I can! I can! Woohoo! Seneca Crane was the first Head Gamemaker but in Catching Fire he was killed and replaced.

And he had the awesome beard. Watch this video; Everything Wrong with The Hunger Games in 3 Minutes or Less

It's obvious they didn't read the books because half of them actually had the answers in the book.

Hahaha Jessica ... just in case someone hasn't told you recently... your pretty awesome.

Yippeeee!!!! Thanks Angelique! :)
