yea that is what the hype is about these days. Humans are really "hungry". For lotsa things.

Was surprised to see a bearded brotha coming out of the movie show. And I wondered about saying "haraam! haraaam!". But then I stopped when I saw a niqabi in the crowd too. I left with a facepalm.

I reallly loved the series...read all three books within a week and now I'm reading them a second time slowly! I couldn't put them down. It's the first series that managed to pull me in and hold my attention after Harry Potter. I found the story pretty deep, what Katniss goes through and the decisions she makes, it actually made me think of the themes the Suzanne embedded within the story. I'd recommend you read it. It's a very well told story. The movie was really good too.

In this first translation of this iconic fantasy by Musharraf Ali Farooqi, whose translation of THE ADVENTURES OF AMIR HAMZA was hailed by the international press as a gift to world literature, we enter the magical world of Hoshruba, conjured in the untold past by sorcerers defying the laws of God and the physical world.


Filled with dazzling illusions and occult realms inhabited by powerful sorceresses and diabolic monsters, Hoshruba had a fixed life, and a designated conqueror who would use its magical key to unravel it one day.

I've grown up reading these in Urdu, but English ones are on their way in the mail!

It seems members are intentionally creating too much work for Mods.
Nevermind, they have given us a big wipper I just used it :X Deleted a few posts (35 exactly).

Please keep on topic.

Wait till you get to book 2 and 3, thats where it gets reallly good. Twilight is an insult to literature and cinema lol. But HG has some aspects of love in it, which is pretty cool because its not shallow and actually complements and adds depth to the greater story arc.

Np...stop asking ppl about it and start reading! lol. Book 2 is Catching Fire and book 3 is Mockingjay. I'm torn between book 2 and 3 for my favorite of the trilogy, they're both really good! Katniss is amazing!
