Hunger Games Series v. Harry Potter Series

 
These two fantasy series are some of the best books I've ever read; to choose one series over the other seems nearly impossible. Because I read the Harry Potter series first, and it was the book series that got me interested in reading, I’d have to say that the Harry Potter series is the slightest bit better. The HP series is much longer, four books longer to be exact. Some would say that because it’s longer it is time consuming and therefore not as good as the Hunger Games, but it is because it is so long that it is amazing. The HP series is able to hold your attention through a series of seven books. The HP series also fits the bill well in terms of fantasy; the Hunger Games does as well, but there is still the creepy feeling that it may one day actually happen. In the HP series, a boy is surprised to find out that he is a wizard; in the HG series, a girl is surprised to find that her younger sister is chosen for the “games.” Both are fantastic series. I suggest both series to anyone who has been living under a rock and hasn’t yet got to reading them.
