I recently just finished, for the second time, the Hunger Games series. The series is fantastic and I've never read anything like it -- I can't wait for the movie to come out in 2012. I have to say that is a generous graduation present from Suzanne Collins.Unfortunately, after finishing such a great series, its always most difficult to move on and read a book that even compares... especially if you are looking to stick within the same genre. I have been searching Amazon.com high and low for a book that interests me enough to download it to my kindle. So far, I have had no luck. I'm picky in what I read, most likely because I have so little time to do it.
I won't pay the standard $7-10 price for a kindle book that is less than 250 pages-- it isn't practical. I'm not proposing books be priced on a variable basis consistent relative to the number of pages, but I can't say that's a bad idea... though Harry Potter VII would have cost a small fortune.
Speaking of, while I bide my time and conduct a thorough search through the libraries of Amazon, I have been rereading HP VII in preparation for the part II release due in theaters July 15th. I realize I am premature, but I'm kind of in a bind as far as decent literature goes.
I suppose I'll eventually have to break down and purchase something without knowing I'll certainly like it... but not without a trip to Barnes and Noble!
If you have any reading suggestions for me... please comment! I would love to hear what you have to say.
