I thought catching fire was alright, but the ending to the trilogy was a steaming pile of dog feces.

Luckily catching fire stopped me before i got that far.

I only finished them to see what all the fuss was about. The movie has so much promise, but they dumbed it down to the preteen level and cut out most of the violence >.<

I haven't seen it yet, but this sounds like a good enough reason not to.

I enjoyed the books, but the sequels were spoiled for me when I read the author's notes at the end of the first one - she basically said that she never intended to write more than one book. While she then went on to say that it was because she felt that there was more to Katniss' story to tell, it felt as if she was just cashing in on the unexpected success of book 1.

(Not that I'm saying I wouldn't do the same thing, mind).

Yeah just milking the cash cow, i also don't blame her, but it's like she felt she could get even more by going the love triangle route.

It was already a pile of shit to begin with.

[–]fault_6[S] -1 points0 points ago

Your username seems to sum it up.

I was sceptical reading such a hyped up book, possibly expecting some twilight-esque content but then really enjoyed hunger games. However i then started reading the Catching Fire, and felt tricked.

Overall, the story is interesting but the characters are weak and extremely flawed.
