Books I have been Reading
So, I finally finished Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins. I received the book as a Christmas gift (thanks Max O. and family) but immediately put it in the classroom library, so just have gained access to the book. Due to my detail oriented nature, I found myself inspired to re-read the first two of the trilogy prior to tackling the last, so I have had Hunger Games on the brain as of late. I found myself frustrated that the movie version of the first installment will be rated R, but in re-reading the book, I found that to visualize some of the descriptions would require a significant amount of blood, gore, and violence. I would recommend reading and discussing alongside your parent if you do venture into the world of Panem, but Hunger Games seemed to feature the most blood shed.
