Which team are you on?

So I totally feel in love with the Hunger Games from the start. I was so excited to read it. A girlfriend of mine in book club picked it for our book. I wasn't sure what it was about all she said was, "its about a fight to the death between 12-18 year old boys and girls televised on live tv." Sounds crazy right? Oh its so good. There's also a love story mixed in. And I think the author is so smart. I love how its set in the future and Amy and I were talking and well, I don't think its too far off. I think that the government could in some way control its people like it did in the book. Although that was a bit extreme, but maybe not.
Now if you haven't read it, go get it today and then when you do you are lucky because you won't have to wait like I did to read the second book, Catching Fire, although we all have to wait for the 3rd and final book. But Catching Fire was amazing. Seriously so dang good. I am for sure going to read them again. They are making a movie out of it and I am a bit worried. I liked the Twilight books, I wasn't a crazy fan, to tell you the truth I haven't even finished book 3 yet, I plan on doing that on my trip, but I did like them a lot. So I'm a bit nervous as to how they will portray this movie, it should be interesting.
So I was just wondering, if you've read it, what team are you on?
I LOVE PEETA!!!!!I am totally team Peeta. I love how much he loves Katniss, even though she doesn't love him all the time.

I like Katniss too. She's so smart and just awesome for a teenager, I love how strong she is and how she can take care of herself. I just wish she'd like Peeta more.


Gale? I don't know. I know he'll be a lot bigger character in book 3 but so far he's not my most favorite, although I do feel bad for him at times.

I don't know. They're both super sexy. I was Team Jacob for Twilight, so it might be a toss up. And finish book 3 will you : )

I love Peeta! But I like Gale, too, he just hasn't been in the books much. But I'm for sure for Team Katniss. I had a dream last night that I was spinning in the middle of the clock and I had Kate in my arms. I was holding on to her for dear life! Weird dream . . .

I like both! Gale isn't talked about in the books that much, so I dunno. Good reads for sure!

TEAM PEETA ALL THE WAY! I have a thing for the underdog, 100% TEAM JACOB for twilight, I think that peeta reminds me of jacob in the underdog sort of way. Just love these books, way to go finding out about them! Can't wait for the movie!

I was just checking up on you today, April & so glad I did! I've been needing something good to read for so long!!!! I'm in a book rut. I've seriously been sulking around wishing someone would recommend a good read, so I'm heading out to get these books tomorrow! Thank you Thank you Thank you. (I'll let you know how it goes....)

I LOVED the books too! I'm totally torn about who I love more though, Peeta or Gale. I think I'll have to wait till the third book to decide.......

I am about halfway through Book 1 and definitely haven't read enough to make a determination. I do have to admit that I am loving reading Hunger Games. It is fun to just read for fun again.
