Personal Review
This was one of my favorite book that I have ever read. Katniss was such an amazing strong character. I loved her as a role models for young adults, while there is somethings that I thought were very sad and awful but, the characters were all so vivid and real.

Warnings
There is some vivid imagery involving carnage.
