A new record

Reading is one of my favorite past times, but sometimes I forget that it is.  Actually, it might be more related to the fact that it takes me a while to get into books.  Maybe I just haven't found the right ones.  I believe that I currently have five books that have been started and not finished.

That being said, I just read The Hunger Games series.  Three books in less than a month.  That is a record for me.  I was so captivated and couldn't wait until I had a moment to read on.  I am really looking forward to the movie to be released on March 23, 2012; so much so, that I have been researching the movie and cast.

Though I love Katniss with her compassionate, kick-ass, hunter, driven self; I absolutely adore Peeta.  In fact, I would like him to be my friend.  He is caring, loving, funny, intelligent, intuitive, level-headed, and has a really great heart.  He says it how it is, yet remains thoughtful and non-threatening in the same manner.  I am really going to miss those guys.

Anyway, I am trying to get my husband to read the series so that we can debrief and see the movie together.  We'll see if I can convince him.  Any recommendations for my next book?
