We have finished the 74th hunger games! This was such a wild ride. This was my first time reading this book and as I am an adult I am surprised by how much I enjoyed it! Katniss is THAT GIRL! While Peeta is strong where it counts. That book had me crying, gasping, laughing, and holding my breath. I throughly enjoyed every minute of reading this book and I am looking forward to moving on to book two.

I remember reading this series as the movies were coming out and i absolutely loved it. coming back to it now as a fan of the dark and gritty dystopian novels, i’ve fallen in love with it once again.
