Jennifer Lawrence Reveals Her Favorite Books

Jennifer Lawrence stars in 'The Hunger Games', a hugely popular book that has being flying off the shelves ever since the movie was released.

The novels by Suzanne Collins were actually published in 2008, but are experiencing a huge surge in popularity ever since Jennifer brought Katniss Everdeen to life.
During a recent chat with CNN, Jennifer also revealed her five favourite books and why they're so good.

1. The Other Boleyn Girl -”Gregory is one of my favorite authors, I’ve always loved history, and she makes it salacious.”

2. Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters – “I’m so drawn to Salinger’s view of society back then, and to his sarcasm. I read Catcher in the Rye first, then this one. I don’t think there’s ever been anything like these characters in American literature.”

3. We Need to Talk About Kevin – While the book - was also made into a movie is not a horror or a thriller, "it's definitely dramatic".

4. Anna Karenina – “I really wasn’t expecting to like it. I thought I wouldn’t want to finish an 800-page book, but then I started slowing down and reading the same chapters over and over. You fall in love with the characters; you grow up with them.”

5. The Rum Diary – “You can tell in one sentence if what you’re reading is by Thompson. You read a Thompson book because of his voice. He’s always getting wrecked in San Juan and reporting on cockfights. He’s just hilarious.”
