Hunger Games Review

The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1)The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

If you're looking for some intellectually stimulating fiction, look elsewhere. However, if you want a fun, quick read then you'll enjoy this book. You'll have to suspend your critical thinking skills, because there are all kinds of huge leaps in logic you'll have to make to not go crazy pointing out all the absurdities in the setting and the convenient plot devices that pop out all the time. But if you, like me, don't have a problem checking your brain at the door, then get ready for a fun ride.

Remember this series was originally written for adolescents so why would you expect there to be issues brought forth that would require critical thinking.
