Okay, I have to admit this book was really, really funny. And yes, it is a parody of the Hunger Games. And yes, you probably have to read the Hunger Games to get what is going on.
The Hunger Pains is exactly the same story line as the Hunger Games, but the characters names are kind of funny and some a bit rude (Effie Trinkets name had been changed to Effu Poorpeople. Read the name out loud. It sounds more rude than it looks). The same goes for the story line.
I think the Harvard Lampoon (people who wrote it) did an excellent job on providing us Hunger Games fans with a funny version of the Hunger Games. There was never a dull moment when I was reading it.
I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars. And I also tell people that there might be some offensive and perverted content, depending on the person. But overall an awesome read.
