[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hunger Games is so much better than the Twilight series![/quote] Heh. So is the Kleenex I just threw out. Raise the bar a bit :)[/quote] There is a lot of bad contemporary teen fiction out there. Twilight would be about the worst that I've ever seen in terms of popular literature, on so many levels. If Twilight is assigned reading in middle school, you might as well assign Harlequin romances in HS and call it a day. At least Hunger Games is thought provoking and could be used as a springboard into other literature - Ender's Game, 1984, Fahrenheit 451. Back in the day, you could never have read and written a book report on a Stephen King novel (not for English class). Now King is taught in college, lol. [/quote]
