Hunger Games Read or Not?

Like Said in my previous article (The one below) the hunger games is everywhere on itunes, in the movies, on shirts, on books, on Facebook, and in peoples' conversations. I never read the book I heard about it but I have one problem. I'm seeing the movie on Tuesday and I don't know if i should read the book now or later?
    If I read it now it would be good an interesting because I'm not reading any book at the moment. But what about time? I'm not like some children that can read 12345 pages in like 2mins (Hyperbole alert!) I read very slow and I don't think I will have time to finish it. I am seeing the movie in 2 days! But I think it would be good to start it and understand at least the beginning of the book before the movie.
    If I read the book after the movie I would have all the time in the world (Hyperbole alert!) to read the book. But one problem.. I  cannot read books after watching the movie it messes with my mind and confuses me constantly. Not only because it ruins the exciting parts because I would know what happens. But the way I image what happens, when I read books I like to imagine everything that happens but if I had seen the movie and then read the book I would try to image it different as i read the book and My mind would keep thinking about the movie. And most people know that movies and books are different in many ways.
    In conclusion I will read the book after the movie because I will have more time. And hopefully during my journey of reading the whole series I will try to over come my "Reading after movie dyslexia"
