Thrilling, exciting and kinda well thought out

When i picked out this book from a library i thought to myself,
'Great! ANOTHER book about an angsty teenage girl who brings down an eevil government set in a ridiculously dystopian world. Meh.'

But i was wrong...on some points.

The plot does have a very few holes in it and certain things that aren't too important to the story may not have been explained, but once you start reading the first book, it's like taking a headlong plunge into the entire series.

What it may lack in creativity o...

EPIC BOOK!

okay i have read loads of books boring and super ones! this tops every single one!!!!


Okay so lets just say if you are getting this one buy 'catching fire' and 'mocking jay' trust me! the worst will be reading this one and realizing you don't have the other two! But these books are amazing, but in a way i hate them.... for being a trilogy, you see... i wish there were more! So you should read them!!! They are amazing and fab! I fell in love with the book and was devastated when i did not ha...

A typical adventure that has nothing great

Firstly, the book is about a girl who fights for her life with similar opponents in a framed arena, referred as The Hunger Games, initiated by a tyrannical dictatorship in a city called "Capitol" as an act of forbidding the citizens to stir a rebellion.

Though the story was well written and adorned with some spices of excitement, I felt that there was nothing new compared to several other stories, with a similar genre, that have been in the market for ages. May be the usage of an advanced f...

Awesome book. Not in the same 'young adult' genre as Twilight.

When a friend recommended it, I checked out the reviews and was scared off by the words "young adult" as those two words brought images of Twilight to my mind. Yuck!
Then I stumbled across the trailer for the movie and that gave me the courage to try it out.
Started last evening. Spent most of the night. Finished it today.
Riveting!
A story about a staged games where people fight to the death in a super large arena that is manipulated by 'game-makers'. How can this not be riveting?

Now fo...

An Unpredictable Book!!!!

One of the most amazing books i've ever read!!!! I'ts quite different from the movie. The movie has quite a few important details that spice up the story missing in it. So, if you've seen the movie and have decided to not read it......think back, think about what you'd miss. You've never read it all unless you've read the hunger games series. A book that talks about the cruelty of the elite and rich people. Talks about the difficulties that the poor face.......and yeah......somewhere it turns...

Excellent quality with a mediocre story ..

This is the 1st book which I bought in flipkart with such bold letters. Pleasing to the eye when I read. As usual Flipkart delivery was superb. Just 2 days after the order. Story wise it was just okay. It was good in parts but overall not as absorbing as I had expected..

Outstanding

Wow. I was barely able to put this book down for a second after the first few pages got me completely hooked. Suzanne Collins narrative here has an immediacy to it that, when combined with the very dramatic life-or-death plot, is incredibly compelling. It's entertaining, and incredibly disturbing all at once. If this was merely a good read, I would have given it 4 stars, but they say great art leaves you changed after you experience it... and this book definitely did that. Suzanne Collins has...

Disappointing...

Firstly, I should admit that I am reading the book after I have watched the movie. But this is not the first time I did this. It was the same case with first 4 parts of Harry Potter and DaVinci Code and in their case, it did not subside my interest in the book.

Having said that, the story to me felt like what an adult human in the world is, though in an imaginary setting. In short, "A human is selfish, working his way to accomplish his motives. These motives can be building because of self-s...
