the hunger games truly is the best series that came out of the YA dystopian boom of the early 2010s - nothing from that era has been able to top it. 

I read this when it came out, I think I was eleven, and a lot of it went over my head because I was so young. I didn't catch the allegory really, or the morality play, nor did I fully understand the power of dystopian (or utopian, for that matter) fiction at that age. but with my knowledge and life experience now, I can say this is really phenomenal for what it is. I usually don't like reading, or listening, in the first person but third person would not have suited this book at all: we need to be inside katniss' head. it's just wonderfully written. 

tatiana maslany was amazing! she's one of my favorite actors so I loved listening to this a little bit more

Slaps as hard as it did in middle school 🤌🏻 With adult eyes though I’m wondering if Katnis was autistic. I’m not sure the author wrote her with that intention but that was the final product and it made me love it more. A timeless classic dystopia that put the genre back on the map with its release.
