The Hunger Games

I've recently finished reading the book one of The Hunger Games(for the movie's sake), in 1 day to be precised.
My friends told me not to read the book before the movie because the book is better, but meh, I don't afraid of spoilers now, lol.

There's Team Peeta and Team Gale going on in the internet(although some say that's not Twilight so we don't need team), but I personally LOVE Peeta Mellark more, after reading the first book, and watched the movie. I haven't start the second book yet so I may not know more about Gale, but for now, I'm all for Peeta.

I like how Josh Hutcherson cast for Peeta, because he's got the look of how I imagined Peeta would be. He looks so innocent, and cute, just Peeta. But for Katniss, I imagined she will be more tiny, and a little girly, just nothing like Jennifer Lawrence. Katniss was 16 years old in the book, but JL's look is nothing near 16(just my opinion).

The movie was amazing, but not as amazing as the book, obviously. There's a bunch of guys sitting next to me in the theater, when they saw how fast the effect was when Katniss apply the medicine on Peeta's leg, they were like "dafuq?! That's ridiculous! blah blah blah..." and I was like "dude, they're in the future. Can't they have advanced medical technology already?" Meh, I bet they never read the book. :x

I would rate the movie for 8/10, I know it's not easy to have put everything into the movie in 2 hours plus, but I still felt like the movie was going too rush... Everything was going too fast before we even realize it. But afterall, they're just my opinion.


So, have you seen the movie yet?

Bookworm in process

I had been reading a lot lately, since I quit my job

So I have a lot of time to read while I'm at home

I finished the Twilight series, then I continue with The White Queen and The Red Queen by Philippa Gregory

They're not the white queen and red queen from Alice in the Wonderland lol

but the queen and heiress from the 15th century in England and Wales

The stories were based in fact, but its' fiction novel

Talked about the story of the White Queen, Elizabeth Woodville and the Red Queen, Margeret Beaufort

It' about the war of roses, the missing Princes in the Tower, the water goddess Melusina...

I don't want to have spoilers here so I should just stop telling about the story

But overall I like the White Queen more because the story is more cheerful, and positive than the Red Queen

I can't say the Red Queen was bad but the White Queen was just came out to be more... happy to read

So, I recommend you guys to have a look to these books, if you like English historical story/love story/witchcraft/fairy tale, you would love them!
