tessa 📚🏹 The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins 🏹<br> <br> ⭐ 5 out of 5<br> <br> I stayed up past midnight finishing this lol, whoops<br> <br> My review:<br> I first read The Hunger Games when I was in high school. That's been at least 15+ years ago, and I am so pleasantly surprised by how well this book has held up. I was daydreaming about getting back home and reading it while I was at work this week 😅<br> <br> ‼️ SPOILERS BELOW ‼️<br> <br> This story is pretty brutal for something that is widely considered young adult, and I'm not complaining about the rating, I was just surprised that I didn't remember how gruesome some scenes were! Rue's death in particular really got me, and I'm sure part of that is because I have a kid of my own now.<br> <br> I really loved Katniss so much too. I don't think I really appreciated how good her character is when I was younger, but to me she came across as a perfect main character. She's talented and brave, but also flawed, angsty, and definitely has the attitude of a 16 year old, despite her circumstances. Some of her inner thoughts really made me laugh. <br> <br> I'm stoked to reread this whole series and then get to the prequels!!<br> <br> 🏷️🏷️🏷️<br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thehungergames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#thehungergames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/hungergames?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hungergames</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/suzannecollins?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#suzannecollins</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bookreview?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookreview</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bookreviews?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookreviews</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/books?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#books</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bookpics?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookpics</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/booksta?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#booksta</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bookstagram?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bookstagram</a>

Dr. Amy H.
