What He's Reading Now: Kyle Lukoff Explores Mockingjay

Kyle Lukoff delves into the dystopian world of Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games.
I used to work in the kid’s section of Barnes and Noble, and borrowed a copy of Suzanne Collins’ the Hunger Games right after it first came out. It looked pretty good—post-apocalyptic future America, governmental oppression, and a girl who saves the day.

Nella Freund said… My bedside table is heaving, as always. I read a couple of books over the December holidays - The Cat's Table by Michael Ondaatje - an enchanting story of a boy on an ocean liner and the ramifications of the people he meets on his life. The Sense of an Ending - one of the most beautifully written books, with a frustrating, intriguing ending. A Visit From The Goon Squad - wonderful, intricate, writing, like a ride on a rollercoaster, moving from character to character. The Fear Index by Robert Harris - intelligent thriller. And so many others to come ...

Andrea Roach said… I've just started Before Night Falls, a memoir by Reinaldo Arenas. I've just begun planning a trip to Cuba and for some reason as I wrestle with writing and understanding everything I need to grasp to write the 2nd draft of memoir, I have this innate knowledge that it all comes to an end in Cuba, that somehow she, an island with such beauty and a tumultuous history is kindred with me and my own. I am also looking for inspiration after taking a break from such a emotionally draining project. So far, his writing is direct, simple and matter of fact. I look forward to getting deeper into his narrative.

Azalie Hightower said… I don't usually do a trilogy but I am finishing up the series by Larsson (The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest). I have on my other e-reader The Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. I am half way. My nephew keeps talking about the Illuminata so I thought I would read this book and find out what it means... A good movie book so far. I've downloaded Lisa Gardner's latest and John Patterson's.

Anna Leahy said… - I just finished reading Pat Barker's The Ghost Road, which won the Booker Prize a few years back. Because my novel-in-progress is set during WWI, I hesitated reading it until I was well into revision. The Ghost Road is better than her more recent Life Class, and is based on real people, like poet Wilfred Owen, which I didn't realize until I'd finished.
I'll also give a nod to two friends with marvelous books: Leslie Pietrzyk, whose novel A Year and a Day is a must read for those of us who grew up in the Midwest in the 70s, and Cathy Day, whose linked story collection The Circus in Winter has been adapted as a musical by students at Ball State.
