My daughter has been reading The Hunger Games for lit class. Reading the book with her has made it all the more memorable. Have you read it? Will you go to the movie?
The trilogy has a definite dark side—loss, death, giving up and giving in. The quote "It takes ten times as long to put yourself back together as it does to fall apart," is by Finnick Odair in the book Mockingjay, the third installment of The Hunger Games trilogy, written by Suzanne Collins.
