The Hunger Games: Special Edition
Suzanne Collins
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line...

Last week I finished:
The Titan’s Curse, by Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson and the Olympians book 3)
City of Glass, by Cassandra Clare (Mortal Instruments book 3)
Both of these have been a turning point in the two series and I’m loving it.
Now I’m reading:
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, by JK Rowling (re-read)
Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline
The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins (starting this one today, the book came in later than I expected)
In case anyone hasn’t figured it out yet I’m kinda big on YA fiction lol

This week I finished Iran Awakening, by Shirin Ebadi and a re-read of The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins. Iran Awakening was really interesting. Hunger Games is a perfectly fine young adult book.
Last week on the Drunk Guys Book Club Podcast was One Few Over the Cuckoo's Nest, by Ken Kesey. This week (Tuesday) will be Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, by JK Rowling.

So i started 3 good books last week.
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, by JK Rowling re-read of course. PoA is one of my favorites in the series.
Ready Player One, by Ernest Cline I loved the movie so much that I added the book to my current To-Read list (any new books I find I put them on my next list whoch I’ll get to after this one). Already love it more than the film.
The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins much more detailed than the movie although it’s been a minute since I last watched it. The book is going great.

I finished Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, by JK Rowling. Loved the extra info about the Wizarding world in this one, definitely expanded the universe a lot in this book. Moving right on to the Order of the Phoenix.
On the audiobook side, finished The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins was good, I didn't like the narrator to begin with, but she grew on me. Also, finished the Mistborn Trilogy by Brandon Sanderson. I seems kind of like a lighter weight Dune, but a lot less philosophical. I loved the third book, and the ending took me by surprise.
Starting Catching Fire on audiobook now.

I've been without a computer for couple of weeks again, so my post will span two weeks.
Last week, I finished reading The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman, which seemed strange and unexpected, which I understand is typical of Gaiman's writing; The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, which I really enjoyed; and Maximum Influence by Kurt W. Mortensen, in which I found so much useful information.
Yesterday I started reading Learn Better by Ulrich Boser, and today I will start Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins.

The Force, by Don Winslow (finished)
I tore through the first 2/3 of this book, but started losing steam toward the end. The main character is an anti-hero, but I think he skews to the side of being too unlikeable. I also felt like there were a lot of cop cliches, which became a bit exhausting after a while.
The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins (started)
This one has been on my to-read list for years. My wife owns the trilogy, so decided to give the first book a go. I'm only ~30 pages in, but enjoying the world-building so far!
