TLDR: Read the Underland Chronicles

Hold on guys. I' m going to start a *********
here.
My opinion on the hunger games:
All hipster jokes aside, I read the book long
before they went "mainstream", so hear me out. In
fact I enjoyed the book a bit, but it wasn' t the
greatest thing I' ever read. The whole concept of it
was taken from another book (which isn' t bad at all in
and of itself, but hang on here), and the writing was
not as memorable to me at least. Now I' m not here
to bash or troll, but Suzanne Collins had MUCH better
books long before she wrote The Hunger Games. If
you haven' t heard of it, look up a series called the
Underland Chronicles. Suzanne Collins wrote this
before The Hunger Games, and they honestly
outshine The Hunger Games in every way possible.
Here are pictures of the book covers. There are five
total, and I' m hoping that you guys give them a shot.

Oh and one last thing. For the sake of the
internet, please stop shoving Hunger Games
content out there and down my throat. I' m
fearing that it' ll become the new Twilight. Read
these books instead; you won' t regret it. Instead
of "may the odds be ever in your favor," you' ll be
saying "fly you high!" (that' s not a typo or a
grammar mistake).
P. S. I' seen and read from the first book in this
series that had Suzanne Collins' s autograph in it.
Fly you high, Funnyjunkers!
P. P. S. Here' s the first picture you see on her web
page. The rat and caption are both references to
the Underland Chronicles.

Yeah, I'm one of the few people in the world who totally agrees with you on this.

Although the boy protagonist is 11 to 12 years old and has almost no friends or social life outside his family, and the Underland, so teenage girls (think they) can't relate to him.

And the first book has an excuse plot where the kid just suddenly fals down a whole in his apartment laundry room for no reason other than "it was destiny" and discover the Underland.

And his toddler sister, nicknamed Boots, is also with him. So that makes it seem kiddish.

The whole series in general is like war trauma, but for children!

I have been a massive fan of the seres since 2003, when I was twelve, so by the time the last book came out, I was sixteen, but didn't consider myself "too old" for it.

And I've been a part of the fadom ever since. I've uploaded and deleted (when I realized they were crap/I got more experienced) dozens of fanarts on deviantART since 2006.

Also. The font on those covers suck, and cement the series image as a kiddish talking animal series. The intial printings had the metallic ones with the flat-top font. Or at least the compromised smaller all-gold font with Times-New Roman type font, from the most recent printings, are better.
