Earlier this year, my wife bought my son a copy of the Suzanne Collins novel, The Hunger Games. It was slow to take hold but once it did he whipped through it in a hurry - always telling us about some epic turn of events. When he finished it my wife had the second book in the series waiting for him and then the third. She began to read the trilogy as well so they could discuss it. Before long, I was on the bandwagon and blazed through the series. The books aren't perfect, but they're good. The film version drops some five months from now but the official trailer was just released. Real talk? Kinda can't wait.
