H for Harry Potter and Hunger Games

Another week starts.

The fact that it is a new blogging week with whole to of A to Z blogging is exciting!

I am happy that I have started this wonderful challenge. I can feel the energy of everyone participating in this amazing challenge.

I have never done a month long challenge before. I am grateful for the support and love I am receiving from the fellow bloggers and readers.

I am motivated to post more quotes from various books (not limited to a particular genre or authors).

Today, I will be sharing the quotes from books that start with letter H.

Here are some clues for the books that I am sharing:

• These are very popular book series.
• These books have female authors.
• One of them is science fiction
• The other one is a fantasy novel
• The movie adaptations have also been very successful

That gave away too much, right?

The books I will be sharing today are Harry Potter series and The Hunger Games series.

I have literally grown up with Harry and his friends. It is impossible for me to recall my childhood without fond memories of these wonderful books. 

I still remember waiting for the new books to release, discussing the plot with friends and reading the book in one sitting. Yes, I did it all.

So, let me share some beautiful quotes from Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

I am sharing the quotes from all the seven books in the series. 

Let us start with the first book.

1. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

The trouble is, humans do have a knack of choosing precisely those things that are worst for them.

Another one (my favorite!) - 

It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.

2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets 

It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

3. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

4. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire 

Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.

Another one -

You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be! 

5. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Youth can not know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young.

6. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more.

7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Do not pity the dead, Harry. Pity the living, and, above all those who live without love.

I am used to the fact that not everyone likes these books. :) It will be nice to meet critics and fans of the series.

Please do share your views or comments about the magical quotes in the comments. I am looking forward to it.

Let us now travel in future.

I will share few quotes from the dystopian novels The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins

I read these books a few years ago and loved it. The futuristic setup with whole lot of action and drama that we see in reality shows today. It was so gripping that I could not keep it down until finished.

This series has 3 books. 

1. The Hunger Games
2. Catching Fire
3. Mockingjay

Today I will share quotes from the first one in the series.

The Hunger Games (2008)

1. You don’t forget the face of the person who was your last hope.

2. Destroying things is much easier than making them.

3. Kind people have a way of working their way inside me and rooting there.

4. If you appeal to the crowd, either by being humorous or brutal or eccentric, you gain favor.

5. Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.

Have you read The Hunger Games? I will recommend it to those who enjoy reading adventure, young adult and futuristic kind of books.

Which books from letter H have you read? I would like to know about it. Please do share it in comments. 

Have a lovely week. Best wishes to all.
