I do not usually enjoy or read sci-fi stuff. HOwever this series captured my attention right away. The characters were great and the story line kept you engaged. Great read, not just for teens.
I borrowed this book (and the series) from a friend, and had to go out and buy it after I read it.
I started to read it after 11pm and was done at 3am - I could not put it down. It's been a long time since a book has captivated me the way this one has. I would recommend it to anyone.
One thing - I thought it would be much more graphic and disturbing (given the concept of a game that includes kids killing each other) but I didn't find it disturbing at all - and would therefore recommend it to young teens as well.
I know this book has become wildly crazy because of the popularity of the movie, but I knew it from long before the movie this would become a global success. The first book really is the best of the series and its original premise, constant action, and compelling main and supporting characters keeps you on your seat from beginning to end. The book is really that much more exciting than the movie. The idea of showing what young adults would do when provoked to fight for their life is truly an amazing, eye opening lesson, learned from similar titles like Lord of the Flies and Battle Royale.
this wasn't my typical read. I picked it up one day because I had nothing else to read and was I ever blown away by it!!! I couldn't put the book down. It's an amazing read!
Honestly, don't judge this book by the movie. It's a solid book with an original plot line. Suzanne's writing is nice to read. A great book to take to the beach if you haven't already read it.
I admit I didn't cave into reading this book until I saw the movie trailer, but i'm so glad I read it! This is an amazing book, one that an assortment of people will enjoy. You will not want to put it down.
I'm not going to lie and say I was one of those people that could tell they would instantly love this book. I had heard about it but it just didn't seem like it would be my cup of tea. I kept putting it off until I was the only one at work who hadn't read it. So I borrowed the trilogy from a co-worker and over the course of 1 week, I was done reading all of them. I couldn't believe how fascinating and well written they were. I highly recommend this to anyone that loves a good book. If you've seen the movie, read the book.... it's better :)
A great read for almost every age! My mom enjoyed it just as much as I did! we both read it in less than two days and couldn't put it down!
