When you can't stop thinking about visiting a specific location, and you feel this rumbling, you have awoken your destination hunger. This is very common (and more powerful) for destinations you have previously visited. The only known relief is to quench your hunger.
I saw a picture of my favorite place on earth, and I fell from my chair when my destination hunger hit me like a freight train.

Get the Destination hungermug. A book series written by Suzanne Collins. It completely rips off of "Battle Royale", a book by Japanese author Koushun Takami that was written over a decade before The Hunger Games. There were also two film adaptations of Battle Royale and a spin-off manga. Both books involve teenagers being forced to kill each other by the government.
The Hunger Games is very poorly written. Its biggest mistake is that it is written in 1st person, so one knows exactly how it ends the second one starts to read it. Suzanne Collins avoids showing the violence that takes place in her novel, usually implying deaths rather than showing them. This is because her target audience is teenage girls.
The protagonist, Katniss, is very unintelligent and has the same problem as all other female protagonists in modern teen fiction- she is in love with two guys and the main focus of the book is which one she chooses. This is the most important thing in the book- it doesn't matter that people are trying to kill Katniss, or that she lives in a world ruled by an oppressive government, or that her family is poor or that a rebellion is being started- the only thing important to her is choosing between these two guys. Everything else takes the back seat.
Essentially, The Hunger Games fails in every area that Battle Royal succeeds.

Teenage girl: OMG have u read The Hunger Games???/?? itz the best book EVR <33333
Me: Yes, and I found it to be very poorly written. It was a blatant rip-off of Battle Royale and the main character was quite stupid, as she was more concerned with finding a boyfriend than she was with saving her own life.
Teenage girl: no ur wrong itz amazinggggg!!1!!11! #Team Peeta <3
*goes back to listening to Ke$ha and worshiping Paris Hilton*
Me: This world is hopeless.

Get the Hunger Artistmug. A movie that owes all its success to Twilight Saga and Harry Potter. Heavily promoted and named "the next big thing". Will never be a Worldwide Phenomenon like the other two franchises because only popular in the United States, flopped internationally. Its about starving children who kill each other to win food for their district. Basically Kony 2012 in movie form. Promotes violence. The casting for the movie is all wrong and no one actually looks like they are starving. Also a rip-off of Battle Royale.
