This is my first time picking up The Hunger Games after growing up watching and re-watching the movies for years and all I can say is “why didn’t I pick this up sooner?!” The book is a lot more intense and detailed than the movie, which is some thing I appreciate and am grateful to be able to read and truly dissect for the first time now that I’m older. I was in between reading my paperback and listening to the audiobook or doing both at the same time to enhance my reading experience. I can’t wait to reread this once I’m done with the trilogy so I can annotate the hell out of my copy because I was itching to if it weren’t for me having an old copy of the book😅 After it being such an amazing read, there’s no doubt in my mind that the next two books will only get better and this is a new book I won’t stop recommending!

this book keeps you hooked from start to finish. 
can't help to compare it a little bit with the world we live in today, where the discrepancy between poor and rich is so ruthlessly real and then compare the different districts with various countries or even continents altogether... 
I love that it makes you think and compare with our day to day life even tho it happens in a postapocalyptic world.
also has the perfect amount of everything: love, drama, suspense and so on. 
it's a shame I didn't read it sooner becaus it was also quite easily to identify with the main characters as well.
