It's that time again! I got a wonderful little reminder from Lish to link up again this week, so I figured, why not. And again, why not, follow the trending of the Hunger Games?!
Now don't get me wrong. I love the novels as much as the next girl. Though I'm fairly afraid of a few things. One, the high crazy publicity. The last time this happened we got Twilight. Now, I will also go on record that I did enjoy those books, for what they were. But I also believe that too much was taken liberties with in the movie to service the fans. So. That's just my little piece, and I'm worried that the same thing will happen to the Hunger Games. Perhaps I'm just getting older. But that's not to say I don't have plans to go see it with my sister and my mom next Tuesday. I'll let you know what I thought of it, deal? Though I will say this, they've already earned major points with me for including Stanley Tucci on the cast. That man is my favorite actor. God love him.
So, (Yes I know I said a few concerns, but I can't remember them just at the moment), here's my list of a few Hunger Games inspired things that I found through Pinterest this week. P.S. I think Hunger Games themed weddings are a bit much. Maybe that's just me.
1. Hunger Games Style Earrings | 2. Hunger Games Stamp Bracelet | 3. Vinyl Decal - LOVE Mockingjay
| 4. Hunger Games Quote (just picture) | 5. Hunger Games Mockingjay scarf
If I had to pick a favorite... it'd probably be between the scarf or the bracelet. I love me some printables but I A) Don't have a printer and B) don't have too many frames. Regardless, most of these things seemed to be linked up with etsy shops, so go check it out! I highly encourage it. And again, thanks to Lish for hosting her How Pinteresting. I suggest going and checking that out TOO!
with love,
I've yet to jump on the Hunger Games bandwagon...everyone is telling me to do it! And like the Twighlight series (which I read only last summer) I probably will :D
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up :)
Of course! thank you for hosting! Am really enjoying the fun thing to do every week! ♥
DeleteI totally agree - I already saw someone talking about Team Gale or Team Peeta and it made me so annoyed. That's not what its even about. It's just a sub-story to the entire story. Argh! haha. ONe of the things I liked about the books to begin with is the romance part was pretty realistic and practical. It wasn't over emotional like in Twilight (even though I enjoyed those books too). I do think they will have to take out some details since it is PACKED full with so many twists and details, but if they make it ALL about the romance I will be so disappointed. Don't get me wrong, I loved that part a lot, but it's not the main thing. Look at me going...what have you started. haha. Just kidding!
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm glad *someone* understands where I'm coming from here. The reason I enjoy reading so much is the intricate details and twists and intrigue that authors put into their writing. I love the concept of the books, mostly for the emotions and the thought provoking cause of wondering what you might do in certain situations. But I *am* afraid it will be fully committed to the romance, since that sells. Which is unfortunate. I'm also afraid that they'll skip over all the other relationships that happen, that are platonic, in favor of it. BUT! I suppose we shall see. Thanks for stopping by!!♥
DeleteI'm stopping by and following along from the blog hop. Cute blog! :)
