🦅 One of my all-time favorite dystopian fanatsies is ‘The Hunger Games’ Trilogy by Suzanne Collins.
🦅 This particular series is on top of literally ALL of my lists - best dystopian fantasies, best YA books, God Tier books, best trilogies ever and so many more! And why should it not be? In a way, it is actually a ‘classic’ for dystopian literature.
🦅 But before I write anything about the book, I would like brief you about what dystopian literature is, for those of you who’re new to this genre. Dystopian fantasies are stories that are set in a world that is the same world as the Earth or at least resembles it but something has happened, so everything has gone crap and everything is the least ideal that it can possibly be! So dystopia is the opposite of utopia. (Makes sense 😂?).
🦅 YA Dystopia kinda started with ‘The Hunger Games’. The concept of it is so unique, so cool and also quite terrifying but really well executed!
🦅 It was also one of the first books to have given me a massive book hangover. (Book hangover : (noun) is that feeling when a reader finishes a book and they just can't stop thinking about the fictional world that has run out of pages.)
🦅 The first book definitely gave me a book hangover, but it was really the second book, ‘Catching Fire’, that caused me to go into serious, serious, like “I have problems” kind of hangover because that whole ending just left me paralysed and in desperate need of finding what happens next. So basically after I read this, I immediately went out and bought ‘Mockingjay’ because there was no way I was gonna live life even for a second without knowing what’s next.
