I read about 2 chapters of the first book because my grandma gifted it to me (because it was what was popular for girls my age at the time), decided it wasn't for me and moved on. I watched the films ...

I know it's a pop culture phenom, and I thought should be more aware for cultural literacy, but I just couldn't. I couldn't finish the first book. Never watched the movies.

I have also never watched any of The Hunger Games stuff.

Dipping out of pop culture has, overall, been good.

LOL I read half a page of Twillight over somebody's shoulder, and I already wanted to stake someone (Stephanie Meyers, for writing that). Wouldn't go near anything of hers after that Some popular culture isn't so bad though. Fourth Wing is surprisingly good, if uneven in the later books.

I'm catching up on the Hunger Games now and have been liking it. Not in a happy fun time way, obviously. I get why that was the YA dystopian series that blew up. It's bleak, but it gives you a lot to think about. I just started the last audiobook.
