Hunger Game series

So I finished the rest of the Hunger Game series, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay.  I really liked them, but not quite as much as the first.  A lot of people I talk to say they only like the first one, and the other two aren't very good.  Not so sure I am with them, but I know why they say what they do. 

Suzanne Collins is especially good at creating suspense and action.  You really like the characters and are torn between which boy that the main character should end up with. 
Although some of the plot is easy to figure out, such as who is going to side with the capitol and who is going to join the revolution, it is interesting what happens with Peeta's character, and the result is not always pleasing, but again, slightly realistic.  What else might you expect from a dystopia?
