Hunger Games is an epic novel written by Suzzane Collins.

Katniss is living in the future United States, called Panem, which is now divided up into 12 districts, each ran by the Capitol. Every year, 24 boys and girls from each district go to a remote part of the country, and fight until the death. Since district 12 is the smallest, the people do not recieve much money, and have to scrounge for everything. From the time Kaniss' father died, she has taken the survival of her family upon herself, so when her sister is chosen to fight in the Games, Katniss volunteers herself. And so begins the training and preperation for the Hunger Games, a brutal and blood-lust event.

I very much enjoyed reading this book, because of how well developed the plot and characters are. It also portrays the wrongness of forcing children and teens to fight each other on reality TV.

Recomendation: 4.5 P
