katharina90 's review for:

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
5.0
challenging dark emotional reflective tense medium-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

YA dystopia at its finest. 

I absolutely loved this novel back when I first read it in college and still very much enjoy rereading it. 

Even when my younger self didn't have the words to describe it, I always appreciated this book for its condemnation of state violence and oppression, and its critiques of a society built on and sustained by capitalist and imperialist structures.

For example, the exploitation of workers in the districts for the benefit of the Capitol's wealthy and out-of-touch elite.
