"Best YA book of this generation"
5 stars"

I picked up this book after reading great reviews about it but I was skeptical at first, since it didn't seem like my ‘thing’. One day after getting it, I had finished and I was blown away. “The Hunger Games” is action packed, emotionally driven and you won't be able to put it down. The protagonist, Katniss Everdeen, is a strong, smart and swift heroine but she also has a subtle vunerability that will make you root for her to win.

Listen to the reviews and give this book a try. You won't be disappointed and before you know it, you'll be reaching for “Catching Fire”.

"..."Gripping!""
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

So far…it's a very gripping read! I'm only part way through, but so far I'm eagerly waiting for my night time reads to continue this story which is both intriguing and disturbing but still you cant put it down. This is a children's book, but I know many adults who are getting into it too! Would make a great movie!

"One of the best choices to buy!" Purchased on Mighty Ape

I am so glad I bought this book. I loved the first one and read it in a flash. The subsequent books were great. I'm so glad I bought this and at such a great price from Mighty Ape as it lead me to the next two books which I loved even more! :)

Great book that will entertain your teen thoughout. Is quite graphic and offers somewhat complex ideas on government and poverty. So much more to this book then the movie.

"A Page Turner..."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

The movie may be awesome, but as the cliche stands true, the book is so much better. See the movie first to avoid disappointment.

Lovely to see a young, strong and courageous female protagonist, a role model of sorts for young girls. The book's plot really sucks you in, half way through this book and I have already bought the next book of the series. Really recommend picking this up!!!

"Great movie"

"Great book!"

I decided to read this book after the hype from the movie. The first chapter just engages you right from the start and you want to keep reading.

Great story, well written and would recommend this!

"One of the best books I've ever read."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

This book is really good. I read through the whole book in about 2 days, and I promptly ordered the 2nd and 3rd books after I was finished. If you like Harry Potter or things like that, I would suggest this book. I would actually suggest it to anyone really.

"Best book in ages" Purchased on Mighty Ape

My son studied this book at school this year and said that it is the first book he's read that he couldn't put down. He stayed up until 4am to finish it – this from a boy who doesn't enjoy reading very much! You can't get a better recommendation than that :-)
