Great book, been re-reading it almost every year for the past 10 years. Recommend it for older teens (14+) and young adults.

I LOVED THIS BOOK! 
So much better than the movie. 
I loved the insight to Katniss’ thoughts and feelings throughout the games. Katniss is such a strong female lead character, that I love with all my heart. Every chapter was left on a cliff hanger making me want to read on. This was a great read and I can’t wait to read the others.

This is the third time that I read this book. The first two times were when it was released and now, ten(-ish) years later. I felt exactly the same and that was my favorite part about rereading this story.

Katniss is an amazing main character: a very strong female role model, selfless, sensitive... even her naiveness is very relatable. She was forced to grow fast and had a very hard life - losing her father and with a mother destroyed by grief she was the only one who could provide for her sister and from that point on Prim is the only reason why she wants to live.

I love this book because shows that love can be the force that changes lives, even in the most complete chaos and brutality the ones we love can make a difference between giving up and fight a little longer.
