I enjoyed the Hunger Games series including the movie and found myself surprised to be watching the movie for a second time when I noticed it on Netflix. I don't usually like to see movies again but it was definitely worth it. I thought the movie did an excellent job of recreating the somber mood of the series as well as capturing the essence of Katniss and her experiences. Catching Fire comes out all the way into next November which is why I was looking for something to tie me over. Although I just started it, Lise Haines' Girl in the Arena appears to be a book in the vein of the Hunger Games. Come back and look for my update and review once I'm through with it. And don't forget to look through some of my old postings and reviews...there are some good books in there!
