I have the e-book version of the 3 books. Have read 2 :) I'm not really into these types of movies but I was just curious. But not really an avid reader of them, I would rather just watch ehhehee.. My brother bought all the books for twilight for his girlfriend and they (with my sister-in-law and my other brothers) read the books but I didn't, I just waited for the movie and let them explain to me the details of what wasn't shown on film . I guess I'm just too tired of reading a lot of things for work that I'd rather let my eyes rest hehehe. Have a great MyLot experience ahead!

hahaha i am really into reading as the book could never suffice my love for reading or could never satiate me. but i believe your eyes are happier as mine aren't.

There are e-books of the Hunger Games series. I'm done reading it days before the movie was released here. It's really awesome. Aside from Harry Potter and Twilight, I'm not really sure if I know other books turned to movie series.

I don't think there are any other series like Hunger Games and Twilight that have been turned into movies, besides Harry Potter of course. I have read Hunger Games and have already purchased the other two books but so far have not started reading them. I also saw the movie last week, this was after I read the book. The movie was okay, but the book is 100% times better. You can find the book right now on Amazon for only $5 or you can borrow it from the library. You should definitely read it so you can compare it. I think you will enjoy it a lot.

i always expected this, that the book is way better than the movies as it was that way with Twilight, Harry Potter, Dan Brown's novels.. it is that way. I might go look for it here.. i would love to read it.

I mostly read Malayalam books and there are many books which had converted into cinemas. Among them one of them is chemmeen by thakazhi sivasankara pillai. I think you can get the translations of them.

The Hunger games is a good movie and still , all the viewers of the movie really got satisfied with its actions and adventure included in it. I really enjoyed this one of the most expectant movie. http://www.moviewatchlist.com/

There had been a lot of books made into movies- on the tp of my list are the Chronicles of Narnia, because their world is so amazing, also the Jane Austen series, since i loved the 19th century.

The Hunger Games i a good story. I just read the book already but still not watched the movie but i want to. :) . Now, i just got a copy of an ebook of the 2nd and 3rd book of the hunger games and i am looking forward to finish reading it. I just love the story. Aside from the novel harry potter and twilight, marvel movies are also books which turned to movies. Haha. Now, one movie also THE SEEKER. I just watch the movie and also i found a book of this movie in a bookstore but i did not buy it but the movie is nice. I think The Seeker is also on series like harry potter and twilight. If you know also, the chronicles of narnia is also a series of books which also turned to movie however not all books has not been in movies. Another one is ERAGON, i just love the movie. Like harry potter,twilight,hunger games, and narnia it is also a series of books. :)
