I can still remember reading this for the first time when I was in grade 6 and I just could not put it down. Such an engaging, intense, and powerful book. Definitely one of my all time favourites and something I've reread multiple times. Highly recommend!

I'm not a big fan of distopias but I liked this one. I knew the plot anyway which I think made me like it less. I didn't remember much of the movie before reading this, I found myself feeling like it dragged a bit. The same questions are repeated on and on and the only part that got me excited to keep reading was the weird twist at the end and<spoiler<I really didn't like peeta he didn't need saving. To annoying.

4.0

(reread) i loooved this book, but i have some complicated feelings about it. i found tons of grammar/wording mistakes which (not to be anal) really irked me. but the characters were incredibly complex, which was so enjoyable to read about from katniss’ cynical pov. overall this was a really fun read that kept me engaged the whole time! it makes pretty fascinating commentary on human nature.
