the joy of reading

Call me a Book Worm or whatever it is that you want to call a person who's very much in love with reading. I'm not a geek or dork, it's just that i want to read. As the title of the song goes, it's my Sweet Escape :D I fell in love with it after I've finished reading Harrry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, way back 2001 or 2002. After that, i started to read novels and book series which i just rented in our school library. (can't afford to buy one then haha).

One of my few favorites was the Sweet Valley High Series. Oh how i adore twins, Elizabeth and Jessica </3 I also grew up reading Goosebumps by R.L Stine. 


During my last year in college, i was introduced to Hunger Games Trilogy. The title itself didn't sound very interesting to me 'cause I'm more of a Nicholas Sparks and Paolo Coelho at that time. But i gave it a try 'cause everybody were already talking about it. That it was really something and a page turner. And finally, i was able to finished it in a span of one day (ehem!) And at that very moment, I fell in love with Katniss Everdeen. Peeta Mellark, Gale Hawthorne and the rest of the cast, I fell in love with the book and i fell in love with the story. After reading Hunger Games, my classmate gave me an e-book copy of it's second installment, Catching Fire and as expected, it was awe-inspiring at literal na makapigil-hininga! The 3rd installment, Mockingjay was released August 2010 and I've read it October that year also. 



Now, Hunger Games is the talk of the town again because it will be released on the big screen on March 2012 starring Jennifer Lawrence who will play Katniss, Josh Hutcherson as Peeta and Miley's ex Liam Hemsworth for Gale and other high-caliber stars who luckily became part of this most anticipated movie of 2012. Just like every fan of this trilogy, I AM VERY EXCITED to see the movie next year. I will definitely watch it on 3D! (yabang). The trailer was officially released just recently and after watching, it gave me chills and made me feel really excited to watch it on big screen. 

This is not the official movie poster, just got it from google. XD


the beautiful cast
