The Hunger Games makes USA TODAY’s Best-Selling Book List
The USA Today ranks the 150 top-selling titles each week based on an analysis of sales from US booksellers. This week all three books in The Hunger Games trilogy made it into the top 10.
The movie version of The Hunger Games, starring Jennifer Lawrence, won’t be released until March. But thanks in part to growing online chatter about the film and its cast (which includes Lenny Kravitz and Woody Harrelson) all three titles in Suzanne Collins’ teen series, set in a dystopian future, are in USA TODAY’s Best-Selling Books list’s top 10. Games, released in 2008, is No. 4. Catching Fire(2009) is No. 8, and Mockingjay(2010) is No 10. Publisher Scholastic reports 9.6 million copies in print. A $30 gift edition of The Hunger Games will be released in November, with three movie tie-in versions out in February. Another factor driving sales: Games is showing up on high schools’ summer reading lists which have been expanded to give students more contemporary options.

Thtz awesome but I think the books should b numbers 1,2, and 3 lol
cool I knew it would happen all along
but it is still really really really great to learn
This isnt really that big news. Hunger Games has been on there for a few months now. I check it almost daily to see where Percy Jackson and a few other series are and Hunger Games is always there…
Yep, The Hunger Games has been in the list for ages… BUT … all three are in the top 10. That’s an impressive achievement.
This just what Suzanne Collins planned. Make an awesome book. Get it on a top reading list. Make her fans obsess over it.
But who didn’t see this coming???? It is one of the most fantastic books ever!!! I have read it like, 13 times or more
!!!! I LLLLOOOOVVVEEE it!!! 
265 DAYS UNTIL THE MOVIE!!!
To Presidant Snow’s Lap-dog (woof)
I agree. I think they just haven’t had anything to post in a while so they find random things that don’t have to do with Hunger Games or stuff that doesn’t really matter. If this has been on for a while…. not big news. :/
See … I think it IS big news. I think having all three of your books in the top 10 at the same time, is an impressive achievement. I think to have that level of success deserves a mention on a website dedicated to those very books!
People – It’s not that big news
The books have been there for weeks (all three) I think only My Hunger Games has just seen it but really it’s not that big news
Totally deserves it
