Movies from Books: The Hunger Games

One of My Favourite sections of the My Favourites website is the Movies from Books page.  Some books are just so fantastic that the movie version cannot do full justice to it - in others the movie simply cannot contain all the glorious detail.  The Movies from Books page has dozens of books that have been made into movies and with our best endeavours we will try to keep a supply of new books about to be made into movies.  One example being the up-coming "Hunger Games".

Coming to theatres in March, "The Hunger Games" based on the trilogy by  Suzanne Collins.  The trilogy has as its heroine 16 year old Katniss Everdeen who must train to represent her District in The Hunger Games - a televised fight to the death.  Set in the near future this series will be popular with teen-readers that enjoyed the "Tomorrow When the War Began" series as well as with a more mature audience.

Enjoy the series, or at least the first book, before the movie comes out.

Have you read any great books that you've heard are about to be made into a movie?
