The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

Does The Hunger Games movie live up to the book?

I know, I know… I am so very late to the party, but I am now fully on-board the Hunger Games bandwagon. I resisted for as long as I could, but the good reviews just kept rolling in from fellow readers I respect a great deal. So, I listened and bought the trilogy.

Last week (yes, just last week), I finished Book 1, The Hunger Games, and can’t believe I waited so long to start this series. I loved it! And what incredible timing I have, since the movie comes out today and I have tickets to go see it this weekend!

Book Review: The Kill Artist by Daniel Silva

As I mentioned last week, one of my personal challenges this year is to read all of Daniel Silva’s Gabriel Allon books. Chris S., one of my good friends, has been raving about this series and I do love thrillers. Based on everything he had told me, this series seemed like a good fit for me. Plus, Chris was nice enough to loan me his copies of the books, so I really had no excuse.

So, I set out to read book one, The Kill Artist, and I learned a very important lesson about starting any new series… click the title to read more!
