Very enjoyable read, I was constantly looking forward to reading the next chapter. Katniss is a great main character and was very well developed. Peeta  could have been fleshed out slightly more for me personally to make me believe more in the romance.

Truly one of the greatest things i’ve ever read. It’s a complex and compelling story that urges the reader to open their mind to the nuances of the world we live in. Panem may be a dystopian future- but it is all too real. 

Not to mention every character is lovable in their own way, and Katniss as a protagonist is one of the greatest I've ever seen. This book is considered a classic of young adult fiction, and it still holds strong to this day.
