Day Eight
Most overrated book
I actually really liked The Hunger Games. It took me a year or so to get around to reading it, but I loved it just as much as anyone. The problem, you ask? I don't feel there should have been a sequel. I was fine with the story right where it ended, and I really wasn't craving to find out what happened next. I thought there was enough closure as is. I still really liked Catching Fire, I just didn't understand what was supposed to draw me from one book to the next. I still haven't got around to reading Mockingjay, but I will eventually.
Side note—while scrolling down Suzanne Collins's website page, I found this quote. "BEST. CHILDRENS' BOOKS. EVER." —Jon Scieszka, Newsweek Are you really going to take the advice of someone who put the apostrophe is the wrong place? It's children's, Mr. Scieszka.
