The Hunger Games Trilogy: My Review

I had read the three Hunger Games books - Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay. I got interested in the books when the movie came out, so decided to give them a read.
The first book in the trilogy, The Hunger Games, is somewhat interesting and invokes interest in the story. Some parts of it are thought provoking, and it really gets you thinking about the way our society behaves. It shows you how humans would exploit their powers in extreme situations. It gives you insights on poverty, teen anguish, work and more. The movie adaptation of the first part was also a hit, and rightly so.
However, I was highly disappointed with the other two books in the trilogy. The focus of the story shifts to a teen love triangle and the protagonist of the story, Katniss, who became a teen idol in the first book because of her bravery, calmness and sorted out thoughts, is now extremely conflicted and indifferent to what's happening around her. The story is no more though provoking, and does not provide any new insights. Because of the violence, it cannot really be classified as a children book, but is also not really a book for mature readers. In my opinion, it wouldn't be wrong to compare the two books with the Twilight series, where the story is only about a teen girl with a confused mind in a fantasy world. Two boys are madly in love with her (for what?), and her mind keeps on shifting from one to another. Her struggle against the system was limited only to the first book. However, author Suzanne Collins has a nice writing style and I was hooked onto the books even though I did not like the story at all.
Overall, I would recommend the book only for teen girls who liked the Twilight. The first book and the movie were okay, but I don't see myself going to watch the other two movies.
