Truly one of the greatest things i’ve ever read. It’s a complex and compelling story that urges the reader to open their mind to the nuances of the world we live in. Panem may be a dystopian future- but it is all too real. 

Not to mention every character is lovable in their own way, and Katniss as a protagonist is one of the greatest I've ever seen. This book is considered a classic of young adult fiction, and it still holds strong to this day.
