why does everyone forget that suzanne collins has written stuff other than the hunger games?
I read this one as a kid, 5 stars for nostalgia, 3 for my rating now
Anne said this one was good.
MG, Suzanne Collins' first book (before Hunger Games). It's decently written and plotted, and the world building is good. But it's not an especially original novel.
