By Suzanne Collins
5⭐️
This story was gripping from the very first page. Collins gives you a thorough look into the life of Katniss in District 12. You get a real feel for the desperation that comes from just living. Then she introduces the Hunger Games.
During the Hunger Games you meet 24 kids from 12 districts. You see them fighting and trying to survive. Deeper than that though, you get Katniss’s perception and it feels like you are experiencing the challenges along side of her.
This dystopian novel is engaging and it pulls you in to the very core. When you finish you will be ready to pick up the next book in the series.
I read this book along side of my middle school son. We both enjoyed it very much.

I love watching the character growth in Peeta and Katniss. I will always cry at that one death. Haymitch is probably my favorite character.
The underlying warnings about a people divided are hard to ignore.
My only real complaint with the book is how stiff Katniss is throughout, even when she knows what's on the line. Maybe it's just because I don't relate to her personality but I found myself rolling my eyes at how obtuse she is at times. However, this definitely doesn't ruin the story for me at all.

I ate it up but are we shocked? (no)
I love the world building a lot, it really feels like you're there.
Katniss literally just trying to survive but any acts outside the box is being seen as a rebellion but she literally doesn't fr want to is interesting.
Katniss and Peeta both retaining disabilities from surviving the games is also interesting, alongside Haymitch's alcoholism, showing that no one survives the games completely unscathed.
Why did Peeta have so much rizz omg?
