'The Hunger games' is one of, if not the best young adult series to be written. The Hunger Games establishes a lived-in world bustling with rich characters (both side and main) that each have unique traits that reflect where in this world they were raised. None of the characters are simple and one-note. It has been amazing to re-read this series and see how well it has withstood the test of time; while other YA series aren't as enjoyable, The Hunger Games seems to have aged like a fine wine!

I really enjoyed this book, it was really well written. Katniss' inner monologue really sounded like it was coming from a teenage girl, which made it all the more entertaining to read, and the darkness of the world and the games was done really well. I honestly can't think of any complaints, and I think it sets up the rest of the series really well.
