Hunger Games


I love teaching for a lot of different reasons, that I am sure I will post at least sometime on this blog. One reason I love it (and can endure the long work weeks!) is that I get some excellent break times. It seems that every time I get a break, I get to enjoy a favorite pastime of mine, reading.

This Christmas I asked for the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I really didn't know anything about it, but had noticed different people from my life were reading it and decided to give it a try. It was completely different than anything I had read before, but I fell in love with it. As I was reading it I kept thinking what a great movie it would make. Apparently so did Hollywood, because it is coming out March 23, 2012! Also as I was reading I felt strong admiration for the main character Katniss. Her tough spirit, edge, and determination were likable. Anyway, I really liked how the artist above portrayed some of the main characters. I am looking forward to reading the next two in the series.
