I have been aware of the Hunger Games for a long time, and finally, I got the audiobook from my local library. And wow, this series opener packs a punch. 
It paints a rather harrowing picture of the dystopian world we are introduced to that is different and yet so similar to what we currently live on our planet earth.

The choices and moral dilemmas that come out of it are at times gut wrenching and heart breaking.

I put this book immediately up to an all time favourite.

The rendition of the narration by Tatiana Maslany is faultless & has been very much enjoyed.
