well it took me long enough but i finally began reading the hunger games. my god it’s good. there’s been so much hype about the film that i thought i best give it a read having been put off in the past by people saying it was for a younger audience (although i’m not sure why that put me off as i’m a grown man who still watches all six star wars movies every year). i am smitten, hooked and thrilled. bring on the movie but i’ll tell you what the book is about as exciting a novel as i’ve read in ages. maybe since the his dark materials trilogy (and i WAS younger when i read those books). 

best book i’ve read this year so far is still A Visit From The Goon Squad by Jennifer Egan. simply stunning. in fact i couldn’t recommend a book more highly. read it if you haven’t. you won’t be disappointed. her skill is limitless.
