I didn't read the book because it just never seemed to interest me. I was repeatedly told by many people that I would enjoy it, but the topic just didn't seem to appeal to me. After seeing the movie, I think I will be reading the next two in the series. I am a bit disappointed that I didn't listen to others who told me I should read it. I wish I had.... The movie was excellent, but being an avid reader I know I would have enjoyed the book more.
I actually read the series and loved it, but it took two years of recommendations from others before I finally read the first one, and even then it was because I had nothing else to read. I'm totally glad I read it because I devoured it in one day, then the second one the next day. I had to wait until I could get a copy of the third, but once I did, I read it very quickly. I can't wait to see the movie, but since I live in China, I'll have to wait a bit longer to get it on DVD. It's not the same as going to the theater, but it'll be good either way! ;) Enjoy the trilogy!

I think you should still read the first book because we all know the movies are never quite as good as the books. Plus, I think the first one was the best of the three.
ReplyDeleteI am on the third book and have enjoyed them. I will wait a bit to see the movie since I don't have any young readers in my life to get me out to the movies but I am looking forward to it.
ReplyDeleteI started book three today, these characters are amazing. I am seeing the movie tomorrow. My husband and I both have had goosebumps at multiple times today just thinking about it! We are geeked. I cannot wait and have heard only positive comments so far! So glad you all went to see it and yes...you should start book two, right now! :)
ReplyDeleteYou should still read the first book. I am just about finished with the trilogy--for the third time. I seem to get more out of it with each read. I'm just really bummed I didn't get to the movie this weekend.
