What are these 'Hunger Games' you speak of?
Remember me? I'm the one that got upset about Harry Potter spoiler 10 million years after the books were published? So, of course I haven't read the Hunger Games.
I am in between books. I am embarking on a long, long plane ride to Memphis on Sunday and an even longer one the following Thursday from Memphis to Wenatchee (I go to the most exciting places).
So, I'm thinking I will buy the first book for my reading pleasure on the plane (no Kindle, a real book).
My questions are:
A). should I do this? Will I like them? I love Harry Potter, hate Twilight
Buzzkill). Should I actually buy/bring more than one book because I will read them so fast? I read 120 wpm.

Re: What are these 'Hunger Games' you speak of?
A) Yes. I'm the same way (although I never even read Twilight). If we're putting them on a continuum from HP to Twilight, they're much closer to HP.

A. Yes. Last I checked, you weren't stupid or dead inside so you'll like them.
Buzzkill. Yes, buy all 3. Failure to do so will cause you great pain and emotional turmoil.

I would buy all three. I tore through all of them in a weekend while I was traveling.
They are pretty good. Not HP-level in my opinion, and the quality diminishes a bit with each book. But you will like them.
You can easily read all three on your flights, so get them all.
I refuse to address your first question because it's so dumb and obvious.

yes!
definitely go ahead and get all of them. the anxiety produced by finishing one book without having the next one sitting on deck is not something i would wish on anyone.
For the love of all that is holy, would you please get yourself an IPAD or a Kindle. I promise you will be 150% times happier.
and yes, get all three books because nothing would be worse than being stuck in the air with the first one done and not able to move to the next one.
Yeah, it's not even a matter of "Oh well, I'll read something else until I get the next one." There is no "something else." Nothing else will ever be enough.

This reminds me of a vomit-worthy discussion on my BIL's facebook wall earlier this week, a bunch of elitist douchebags patting each other on the back for looking down there noses at the Hunger Games hysteria of the unwashed masses.
Of course, none of them has read so much as a page of the book. Because they are just too smart for it.

I think you will read them fast if you're reading 120 wpm. With that being said, I would recommend the book. I'm on page 272/378 of the first book. I really do look forward to reading it when I get home for work (that's how I always know it's a good book).
PS: I'm not sure if you have an Iphone or not, but you can download the kindle app for free on it and download the first book for $5 on amazon & it will download to your phone instantly. Here's the link if you're interested: http://www.amazon.com/The-Hunger-Games-ebook/dp/B002MQYOFW/?tag=leacel0f-20
Also, I know you might think it sucks to read on the iphone but it's actually pretty easy for me so you could download the app for free and read the test pages or whatever to try it out.
Hope you enjoy the book
Seriously. It's like spam without the broken English.
