I love the hunger games! I’ve only ever watched the movies and I’m so excited to learn the true details and thoughts through the books! I was truly amazed by the brilliant writing and how I was kept entertained for hours on end! I could not put this book down until I was finished! This is a must read!

There is definitely violence. It is war. In the hunger games the goal is to kill all 23 tributes until you're the last one standing. The alternative is death. As a result you witness a lot of that while reading this book. You can either kill or be killed. They are set in bloody times and you might wince at an injury description, but the books really are works of art!

i never got around to reading these books as a kid and i’m so glad i decided to pick them up now. i’ve seen the films so i kind of new what to expect, but katniss’s internal monologue adds SO much to the storytelling. excited to continue with the series

Olen lukenut Nälkäpelin ensimmäisen kerran reilu 10 vuotta sitten enkä sen jälkeen ole siihen tarttunut. Pitkään olen nyt haaveillut uudestaan lukevani sen, ja nyt vihdoin kesällä on aikaa. Ja hui, kaikki pelkoni jäivät toteutumatta ja rakastin Nälkäpeliä niin kuin lapsenakin. On lähes ilmiömäistä, miten hyvin kirja on kestänyt aikaa.

Dystopiana Nälkäpeli on uskottava ja uskottavuudessaan karmaiseva. Katnissin näkökulma tekee kirjasta elävän ja samaistuttavan. Kirja on kirjoitettu todella koukuttavasti eikä sivun kääntäminen ole koskaan ollut näin helppoa. Nälkäpeli on jo nyt klassikko - eikä suotta!
