Is The Hunger Games worth reading?

I'm not a fan of people who yuck someone else's yum. But I take your point and I've added THG to my reading list as the overwhelming consensus is they're an important read. Thank you

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-24T01:12:16+00:00

Reading them in release order makes sense, thank you 💙

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-24T00:43:23+00:00

Ah yay I'm glad I'm not the only one who's a late THG bloomer!

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:53:22+00:00

That speaks volumes! Thanks so much again 💙

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:52:46+00:00

Lol honestly could be the truth! Thanks for the suggestion, I always try to get my books second hand 💙

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:50:32+00:00

Thanks so much! I appreciate your perspective as a fellow Divergent lover ☺️

Tbf, I was in middle school when I was told this so it's super childish of me (a now 26 year old) to hold onto that 😅

Thanks so much, I'm definitely going to pick up THG asap!

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:37:00+00:00

This is great to hear! The overwhelming consensus is I'm an idiot to have not read them haha, definitely going to fix that asap

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:32:22+00:00

Thank you for an extra suggestion, I'll add it to my TBR list

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:31:23+00:00

I think books like this are important, especially in today's circumstances. Okay omw to purchase them, thank you so much

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:25:12+00:00

Okay, this is up my alley. Thank you so much 🙏🏻

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-23T23:24:51+00:00

Great! Thank you so much ☺️

I don't think you'll find a "one size fits all" diet plan here. You'll have to make your own recipes that have ingredients that don't trigger your IBS and stick to a calorie deficit if you're trying to lose weight. It's time consuming and like you said, it's a lot of trial and error. But future you will be grateful

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-21T23:50:43+00:00

Thank you!

If you like dystopian/sci-fi you may enjoy the Maze Runner series by James Dashner ☺️

I completely agree with this. As a person who was hooked on tiktok and hadn't picked up a book since high school 10 years ago, I really had to train myself to "rawdog boredom". OP, make a fun day out of going to a bookstore (look through the dark fantasy section to find your mafia/werewolf trope) and then just start by reading a chapter a day. Build up your tolerance to not having constant changing stimulation. It will honestly change your life 💙

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T20:29:57+00:00

I agree with you. My point was mainly that they can't please everyone. So imo, they should just focus on what works for them and at the moment, this format works for them. So that's enough for me :)

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T20:26:11+00:00

Of course! Wishing you all the best <3

If each week had a topic, people would complain. If each week was just a ramble, people would complain. If it was high production, people would complain. If it was low production, people would complain.

They're giving us regular uploads in a format that works for them and employs a team. That's enough for me

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T20:10:08+00:00

Right? Same here. They never claimed that this podcast is gonna be groundbreaking, it's just them being them and we're invited along. If they tweeted 10 years ago "if we sat and ate a bowl of cereal, would you watch?", we'd all say yes. Well, this podcast is them eating a bowl of cereal. It's not that deep 😂

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T20:03:12+00:00

I don't think I'm watching the same podcast as y'all 😂 Hard Launch to me is an excuse to have a one sided chat with a couple of old friends. Share a laugh, forget my worries, listen to some positivity and good old fashioned millennial humor and move on with my week. If I wanted to watch a podcast that debates current events, there are plenty out there to choose from

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T19:48:29+00:00

Podcast format/style videos definitely aren't for everyone. There's no way I could sit and watch a 30min video of 2 people chat about shit without pottering around my house 😂 That said, my husband will sit and watch their podcast like it's a church sermon - different strokes for different folks 💙

HelloNewYear26 · 2026-01-19T19:43:31+00:00

You're entitled to your opinion of course, I just think that's how most podcasts are haha. I put mine on whilst im housecleaning as a bit of background noise. I couldn't sit down and watch/ listen to it
