There is a reason The Hunger Games launched a thousand YA dystopian knock offs. This novel doesn't just hold up, it is outstanding. Suzanne Collins' control of limited first person and indirect characterisation is outstanding.

Just completed my third time reading, and my first time using the audiobook, and I’m still filled with such deep love for this story. I enjoy this book everytime and it never gets old. It’s truly a lasting, all-time favorite.
