I'm a child of Harry Potter and I have always thought the Harry Potter series were the greatest books in the world (both when I was young and currently in my 20's). The Hunger Games trilogy is right up there with the Harry Potter books. Suzanne Collins knows how to catch the readers attention and hold it tight! It's been difficult for me to put this book down, especially when I'm supposed to be doing homework. I would highly recommend this book to both teens and adults alike!
