I just finished this book, and it was absolutely amazing. I wasn't sure that I would like it because I'm not always into dystopic books, but this book had action, romance, and challenged my thinking and reasoning as well.
I think that the main character, Katniss, has a well-developed personality. She is strong, but not all tomboy. I also love that she has flaws. She makes bad judgments of both situations and people, but she never lets her failures disable her. I wish that there was more about her friend Gale- perhaps that comes in book two.
This is a must read for everyone who enjoys reading, and, like Harry Potter, I would expect that even aliterate people would get something out of this book. I have book two coming from the library in a few days, and needless to say, I can't wait! I have heard that book two has a serious cliffhanger at the end, though! I give this book 5 stars.
What did you think about it?
Oh, I so want to read this book! I can't believe I haven't yet. And this is the perfect time to start the series, because I think Mockingjay is being released relatively soon. Great review!
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree. I just finished re-reading and reviewing Catching Fire (the sequel) and was blown away by how it good it was!
ReplyDeleteMan, to start out a blog, you definitely picked an awesome book to review first! I loved this book from the first page of the first novel to the last of the second. I am on pins and needles waiting for my copy of Mockingjay (already ordered from Borders.com). I completely agree with your review.
ReplyDeleteGreat review! I really must read this book asap!
ReplyDeleteYay for The Hunger Games! I love this series so much and I'm counting the minutes until Mockingjay next week! I'm glad your enjoying these books:)
