2023 December 23: Still so good.
2023 December 21: I can't believe it has been TWELVE years since I first read this! But I'm FINALLY re-reading this to cure my insane Hunger Games brainrot since I saw the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes movie last month.
2012 March 23: Saw the movie! Once again, the ending made me tear up like crazy.

I jumped in and read Hunger Games trilogy after seeing the wave of mentions on the news.
Suzanne Collins's writing is fantastic--written in 1st person the voice of Katniss comes across clear as a bell, and I enjoyed being inside the mind of this gutsy girl who kills things...

#bookrevolution: I don't even know where to start with this. This book... too many emotions with it. From the moment Katniss volunteered, to the end when she admitted she was losing Peeta I've been hooked and craving more. The emotional turmoil one girl went through throughout the entire Games is something I couldn't survive. Katniss as a character is so strong, but in the end I felt her weakness, how her confusion was getting the best of her. I can't wait to read Catching Fire!

these books are absolutely refreshing and creative. it's no wonder to me why Hollywood is doing a movie! it's so different from anything else and there's so many twists. I think the dystopia theme is very well done.
