How did Hunger Games fever strike?
I read the Hunger Games by chance when they first came out and they were great. But at the same time I have read other YA fiction that is just as good IMO.
Ultraviolet and The Chaos Walking trilogy are very orginal and would also make amazing movies.
So why is that books like the Hunger Games, Twilight and HP really took off? Is it just to do with finding a gap in the market? Why do people seem to become OBSESSED!
I personally got into HP a little later than anyone else but loved it and the movies were/are still great. Twilight was okay, although the second book was really depressing and after seeing the first movie I didn't bother to go see the others. The Hunger Games was great but of course very plot focused.
Thoughts? =)

So perhaps, these got popular because more people heard about them.

One of my kids had to read "The Hunger Games" for school and told me about it, but I didn't care for the premise. Once I heard they were making a film out it, I figured it was worth a try, and then I got hooked.
So, it may have to do with it being made into a film
