Entertaining? Yes. Was I expecting more? Yes.

So I'm a bit late to this series, but I wanted to read it before seeing the movie. If you are looking for a good "vacation" read, this will definitely satisfy.

However, I had one fundamental issue/nitpick/complaint about this book: It reads like one long run-on sentence. Seriously! There is absolutely no pacing and no sense of time. Apparently the actual "Game" itself lasted weeks! But there is zero sense of that time passing when you read it. I imagine Katniss as the narrator telling this story in complete monotone and never once stopping for breath.

Glad I finally got around to read it, but sincerely wished it was better.
