One of the BEST books I have ever read. I truly loved the characters, and I cried more than once. I could not put down the book for anything, and I blame it for falling behind on my project in class and for not studying for my test. I cannot wait much longer for the second book "Catching Fire" that comes out September 1st 2009, but I believe I must wait....... AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :] Oh. My. Goodness.

There must be a second book, considering there's just too much suspense at the end. Feels unfinished. I stayed up until late hours at night to finish reading it, but I still couldn't sleep afterwards wondering what would happen when Katniss joins back with Gale, and what will happen to Peeta's broken heart. I can't even imagine Gale's reaction after all that's happened with Peeta back in the arena, considering it's obvious Gale wanted to tell Katniss he loved her that last day on the Capitol before they gathered her for the Training Center and all those interviews before the actual Games. It was frustrating. Anyway, I'm really recommending this book to friends, and to all of you. It's amazingly written and got my heart pounding so hard every time there was a suspense or fight scene, got me crying a few tears sometimes, and finally got me pondering deeply even weeks after I'd finished it (took me only one Saturday) about the satirical side of the book. I'll be anxiously waiting for the second book... Just a great book. Highly recommend it. P.S.: If someone gets a release date for the second book, it'll be nice to get me noticed. I know it's going to take some time but I live in Mexico and I don't really have much contact with American bookstores. I absolutely loved this book and enjoyed every word of it.

It is so fantastic. I love Prim the most, or more how it drives Katniss. I love my little sister just like that, and Katniss' journey back to her sister was so emotional for me! Who do you think she will end up with? Peeta or Gale? And I heard they are making a movie, I can't wait to see it!!! OMG, I love this book. It is so fantastic.

I bought and but for some reason when someone recommends a book to me I find it difficult to start, so it sat on my shelf for about 3 months. Well I ran out of reading material so decided to pick it up. I was amazed I haven't found a book that well written since the Twilight series and Host. Now I am searching for anything Suzanne Collins has wrote. Yes, I am 30 above the age the book is recommended for, but honestly almost all the books I have read recently, which are many, are all in the same category. My sisters tease me that I need to move to the adult section however, I have yet to find any book that has captivated by attention like in the young adult section. Maybe it is because I love the supernatural and sci fi. Anyway, I highly recommend The Hunger Games and agree with the rest of you that it is going to be a long wait for the second book...
