The Hunger Games

Is it true that you don't like book "The Hunger Games"? Why?

This question is for Jennifer Lawrence. I read it on the internet, and was absolutely shocked.

Hey, I don't know if JL is on GradeSaver much but I recall reading an interview (I love movies) and tracked a quote down,

Is it true you nearly turned down The Hunger Games because you were worried about the impact it might have on your life?

"Yes. I loved the books and the screenplay but I was worried about how being part of a big film franchise might not just change the way I live but also how it might overwhelm the rest of my career and the other kinds of characters I wanted to play. But in the end I made the right decision and I'm proud to play Katniss and I feel very lucky to have had the chance to play in so many interesting movies even though I'm still pretty young."
