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!

Well, this was just as good on a second reading so many years later. I'm quite surprised because I feared I wouldn't enjoy it quite as much now I was more grown-up, but I just couldn't stop listening to it. The audiobook narrated by Tatiana Maslany is amazing, by the way: she did such a fantastic job bringing Katniss to life! Her singing in *that* scene actually made me tear up.

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.

Rereading this series to read the newest book (2020) only to announce they’re adding a fourth in 2025! I forget how much i enjoyed this series as a kid, and it still holds up today. I still critique the use of the love triangle, but i understand why it’s included. Overall still a great, enjoyable read.

All i want to say is: I can’t believe I didn’t start this series sooner. 
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.
