I'm afraid after finishing this, my opinion is one of a somewhat overrated, low-brow book. There's no doubt that it's incredibly enthralling and more or less impossible to put down (I've read it within 2 days). But there was something about the book which didn't really convince me, something somewhere between the mediocre writing style of the author and the facepalm-worthy naiveté of Katniss (when it comes to some topics). In addition to that, it is ridiculously predictable and the graveness of the situation never really sinks deep. You could say it's a bit shallow for a dystopia. I've read all the dystopian masterpieces from 1984 over Brave New World to The Handmaid's Tale, so I suppose I have high standards.

I will probably read the sequels anyway...
