After expressing a book on Kindle and loved every page, and find that book 2 is not available on the Kindle was disappointing, to say the least. Shame Scholastic Press – for you! Rating: 5.1
I had big problems with the first book in this series, “Hunger Games”. I thought it was a trite rip-off of “Battle Royale”, complete with a silly, unworkable premise and a checklist for true science fiction clichés distopian future. My opinion on this issue remains inchangée.Heureusement, “Catching Fire” is a little better, but just a story peu.L resumes with the end of the first book shows Katniss (how stupid name) and her friend, Peeta (what stupid name) to travel by Panem (what a stupid … Oh, you get the idea), a tour victory. You may have to be sent, in essence, to any idea that crush the rebellion have on the communities. Hmmm. . . to the government and the killing essentially large groups of children each year and, surprise, it is a rebellion? big shock, and some of the reasons why the principle is doomed to failure, but passer.Finalement, he announced that he had a big Super Special Hyper-Mega Cool Hunger Games this year with several survivors of the previous games are in competition. Guess who finally picked up? In general, the book is rather boring. There are some interesting scenes, such as Katniss meeting with the President and a good time includes a wedding dress, but also some of the most interesting scenes comes off retread of the first book. The implementation of the games are not as intéressants.Il is also a moral of this strange story. There is an enormous amount of violence in the book, as it is the first way (the more you want every child to read at a certain age and I am surprised, Scholastic published this one), but no sex at all. None. Katniss seventeen years, and when they kissed for a moment toward the end of the book, as if she had her first orgasm. It is authorized by the author go to the killing of people, but must remain clearly empty. Yeah, I roll my eyes. As’m fun, it is no bad language in the livre.Je sure the fans of the first book will wet your pants at the opportunity to read it. I’m sure if they liked the way they do this because much of it is almost the same. Any other person, not likely. Rating: 5.3
Sorry to disappoint those who come to the positive comments about the books they love and their friends to read, but I refuse the unwashed masses of Amazon book reviews Pander. The Hunger Games is a really horrible story. Suzanne Collins has developed hack writing to an art form. And I read Twilight, I do hack writing. Terribly written, a terrible story, speaking révoltant.En anything of the Dawn, by the way, I noticed on the first page, as one Amazon reviewer was ignited with the words: “When I saw that this book quotes Stephanie Meyer has recommendations and Stephen King, I knew I had to read it and was a great read, and I was not disappointed, “Well, let me say that the fact that Stephanie Meyer enjoyed the book should have warned me at the beginning : the appropriate place for this work of fiction is not in my library, but in the garbage along the burned copies of Twilight was used to second hand shops to collect the fire. And as far as Stephen King, I am shocked and saddened to think that I would never believe the bad taste that there is a writer in the world, has impeccable. Stephen King writes great novels of excellent novels, but I think you get back. It is absolutely inexcusable that he in any way, parody, which a number of Collin.Il not long ago at the urging of some friends I read the first book to be promoted Hunger Games. Let me first say that books on young survivors in a dystopian future, not my favorite subject, but I will try to give everything. I found myself on the last page of the book, unaware of the plot, but still curious to see how Collins would wrap things about what was literally the last page. moderate interest turned to dismay and anger when I turned the page with “Do not forget to come read the next part of the series soon!” In the past I have read had to be welcomed into suckered books that seem harmless, but as a work in progress, the next installment due for release in a few months. I have even been burned when I retire, “not read the meter “, by Patrick Ness. In the future I will stop judging books by their covers, and always flip to the back to ensure they are not part of a conspiracy to cover the author shares her RAISING THE BOOK —- shoot without ING. It is my belief that books play in any way in a series of twisted author, these books must be clearly marked with numbers on front, spine, and perhaps a warning on the page content (Note: immediate gratification is not until well after the author decides, will be the direction in which this story) a part of my anger was probably because Collins to write, what appears to be jumping the simplest decisions: Is Katniss with Gale or Peeta? It makes me angry because I do not want a whole book to read, only to others who can write, I really am in two sentences: “But know Katniss came to his senses and Peeta landing. Ran into waiting arms of Gale and was quite happy for the rest of his life. “But what really grinds my gears is that the book itself is completely irrelevant whether it will actually no need to always try and read the next one. I was sad and unhappy, and generally not happy playing with the puzzle games Collins on me has. I swore to her novels for children and decided to live my vie.Cependant, curiosity killed the cat and satisfaction brought hope. At the request of the mother (This all is better than the first, I think you will like it!) I began to catch fire this morning and ended at 10.00 clock 15.00 clock when I started to check this. The fact that the two-part series of a trilogy in progress was not Faze me how the last page open safe because before the start of playback. I was greeted with nothing less unspeakable. Why do I care about these characters again? Katniss weather vane is a coward who, in spite of his shell, absolutely unable to make decisions or emotion other than confusion, anger and sadness. The other characters in the books, the supporting roles as the “star” Katniss action are two-dimensional and never enough to explain why Katniss “loves” them so much that it explores a central point of the plot that any decision in Katniss or not. We just said we must love them because they are to love and Katniss go merrily along the reading without connection to any character, as they ex machina review throws and incredible coincidences in our face. How stupid keep us Collins? Finally, each mother too much imagination in adolescents and young people who have read these books will come to their senses and realize that when everything is against them, unlike in the book world, things will probably not work for them. But then again, that in real life, and you do not make a living in real life you? At least living in a fantasy world has worked for you. This félicitations.Pour all true and serious readers out there: I know that it is difficult at this time, her hands on the reading, make a difference in people’s lives does not bother.’s why I say that the warning Do not buy: this article. Do not talk about this book. Do not even think about this book . And if the hype of the masses through this garbage to the point where it a movie, I hope you do the right thing and reject others to support the franchise. I know it’s hard, but if we work together as Katniss and discard card to play minor characters, we may improve the quality of fiction in the future. To all: I hope you choke to death of your mass produced old-growth forest that destroy WASTE nightmare scenario. And I hope that Collins goes with vous.Note: 1.5
I’ll be honest – I have 5 stars Hunger Games on its strengths in a particular genre which is written based-is a great SciFi, descriptions, subtext, so I was curious and went to pick up in flames. When I did I could not go on Chapter 2 and again (not Amazon). What I like about the Hunger Games was completely destroyed in the first two chapters and I thought it would be hard to beat. Reading the comments, except one and two stars, I see people agree with moi.Mes concerns: 1 History is not told in the voice of a teenager 16 years. I had this issue with the hunger games, but the plot was strong enough to forget me. But catch fire, it is much in the flashbacks said, and the adult is more sensitive than the voice of the narrator. We should see, and can not be said – why do not we see the reunion with Gale is a great opportunity manquée.2. Repetitive – others have mentioned in their comments as well. I understand that the author provide readers should for the first time with the speed – but it was not done very well. For those who have read HG, it was another device that you wrote the story. I read the comments of others here and now that Kat back in the arena Hunger Games, and only the feeling paresseux.3. Drawing – (spoiler), the President made an appearance in the House of Kat in Chapter 2 and has a very open discussion with her and she with him. It was just ridiculous. There was no thought based. Again I felt paresseux.Avec all due respect to the author, a wonderful first book of the trilogy – if a book is written so brilliantly, and the second occurs at a very high level. Perhaps as a separate book would be good to catch fire. But I agree with other commentators that the second act is always the hardest to remove, and I guess the third book is much better and I am glad to read it when I can go to the library before you commit actually this time to buy.

mmmm. . . Yes. The second book Hunger Games. After enjoying the first big, I had high hopes for the second. Soon it was clear that had not before, had kindled a lot of action and excitement of the first. In fact, to catch fire never really came to me, may slow in the rule book to start at the beginning and end, I am absorbed by it, but not taken fire shooting. Why? First, writing very boring begins, there is not one single paragraph, without the main character in the room and wondered aloud all thoughts, feelings and emotions. There were many who in the first book, but the plot and action helped my mind off waiting for the second book there is no such distractions. Soon it seemed very close journal.Deuxièmement reading diary of a daughter, Suzanne Collins, is that caught fire, much like the first he has seen already seen the film, then you are with Denzel Washington. I can not write the greatest similarity in my opinion, because to rob them. The book has nothing that can really stand from the first. Both books are so similar, the only difference is how the second. If the first book was Dr. Evil, Mini-fire would take Me.Troisièmement, the love triangle between Gale, Petra and Katniss very flat and unrealistic. I have trouble calling a triangular love story, because it seems that nobody really loves each other. His act almost like the three characters on the pretext that her lover. Pretending like the fact Katniss for the citizens of the Capitol, where she was at the Games hunger. may Gale, Petra and Katniss appear to be faked her love, so that we, the people who pay for bread Suzanne Collin, is its best buy livres.Au say, a bridge to the series for the last book will be supported and Final Bridge very fragile. I can imagine that many people fall this bridge and never make it to the third book. In fact, read the thought afar or not the third book after the disaster literature. Rating: 5.1
