That's one the reasons I love YA, they do have pretty deep themes, and I love it.

I even saw it twice (I mean, my friend wanted to see it, so who am I to say no?). So many lessons from that movie and I can't wait to re-read the books. I'm with you in that I liked that they showed the other districts on big screen. It was important to see it wouldn't have worked without them as well. I know you're Team Gale, but I heart Peeta!! :) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16463977985232229217noreply@blogger.com
