I literally couldn’t put THE HUNGER GAMES down. The story’s so compelling and intense, especially when you think about how Suzanne Collins got the idea for the book. I loved the characters, especially Katniss, Peeta, Rue, Haymitch, and Cinna. The ending kills me because it's not a cliffhanger exactly, but it still makes me want to read CATCHING FIRE as soon as possible. I really enjoyed listening to the audiobook. Tatiana Maslany was amazing!
