I really liked the first one, and the trailer for the second looks really good too, so I'll hold off on the books.

Of course, with Donald Sutherland and Phillip Seymour Hoffman as bad guys, it's gonna be great no matter what. :thumbsup:

Collins book concept came from her viewing contrasting TV programming......sitting watching "realty show TV" one hour and then finding global/national conflict within the same hour of viewing.....the PROFOUND juxtaposition brought forth the "Hunger Games"......introspection at it's PINNACLE.

"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

Bob, this is the 2nd book in the trilogy. Mockingjay is the last and is being split into 2 movies, the 1st slated to release in Nov 2014 and the 2nd in Nov 2015. I hate when they split them up that far apart - they should release Part 2 in May 2015.
