This was an amazing book. Held my attention from beginning to end. It had some really devastating moments where I had to take a break to compose myself.
it is the kind of book where you know people are going to die and try not to get attached to them, but in the end your heart breaks anyway. I am not sure I will be able to watch the movie cause it will be even worse!
I might need a day or two before I move on to the next book in the trilogy! ...more

UPDATE 3/13/14:
I wanted to re-read the series, after recently seeing Catching Fire. I still really love this story...maybe even more than I did the first time around.

Het gaat over Katniss. Ze leeft samen met haar moeder en zusje een erg armoedig leven in District 12, maar omdat haar vader haar voor hij doodging heeft geleerd hoe ze moet jagen, hebben ze toch altijd wel wat te eten. Maar de plek waar Katniss leeft kent één keer per jaar een duistere periode. Elk jaar moet vanuit elk district (er zijn er 12) een jongen en een meisje gekozen worden (niet geheel volgens een eerlijke procedure). Deze kinderen (tussen de 12 en 18 jaar) moeten het onder barre omsta

Katniss Everdeen lives in a post-apocalyptic North America called Panem which is ruled by a capitol with 12 districts. Every year 2 tributes from each district are sent to the hunger games in a fight to the death. Katniss volunteers to take her sister Prim's place in the Hunger Games and is sent with Peeta Mellark, the bakers son. The book does a good job of setting up the land and once the games got started I couldn't put the book down. I'm looking forward to reading the next two books in the s
