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!

I watched the movies before reading the books and I can’t say it didn’t influence my reading experience. I definitely would have enjoyed it much more if I hadn’t know the story, but it was still very entertaining and I got through this first book in a couple evenings. Despite me knowing the major plot points, the story still had me hooked and it was interesting to see Katniss’ thoughts.
It’s a really solid book, one that has undeniably influenced many aspects of our 21st century media. Personally, I thought this was great, but I’m not obsessed with it like I might have been if teenage me had read this going in completely blind.

There was a lot more nuance to the characters and the worldbuilding than I remembered, and the social justice element was really evident - maybe even a bit too much at times but hey, it still works considering it's a YA novel. I'll continue my re-read with the next book in the series, which I'm even more curious to revisit since I remember very little about it.

This story has everything you would want, action, adventure, romance, heartbreak, etc.
I’m sure my review isn’t of any help now, but yeah great book. I regret not reading it sooner.

If death and cruelty isn't your thing, and you can’t stomach it, don’t read it.alyssapusateri's review against another edition
