The Hunger Games is utterly un-put-down-able. I already know the story and how it ends, but even so, I cried at the same parts I always have. The depth of the characters and world and story, how cleanly it foreshadows the following books, the realistic depiction of PTSD.... it's all brilliant.
The only reason this book gets less than 5 stars is that the writing is just the slightest bit stunted, and I found parts of the book rather dull, particularly before the Games proper. (Although I found that Ballad didn't have this problem, but it could be the first-person vs. third-person perspective. So I definitely don't blame Collins for that.)
This book is truly a must-read for everyone.
