Every Hunger Games Book, Ranked

The Hunger Gamesbooks have become modern classics, and each of them does a stellar job digging into the realities of power, class dynamics, and rebellion — but some installments in Suzanne Collins' best-selling series prove more compelling than others. The first Hunger Games book debuted back in 2008, resulting in a rise in dystopian fiction in the years that followed. Catching Fire and Mockingjay continued Katniss' story, giving readers insight into the power dynamics of Panem and how they could be dismantled.
