If you haven't heard of the Hunger Games you are living under a rock. The first book of the trilogy by Suzanne Collins has swept the nation since it's movie release in March. Although the movie was a fantastic film, the books are a must read. The books were not something I thought I would be interested in, but 20 pages in, I couldn't stop reading. The books are easy to read and are so different from other books. The book takes place in future America, there are twelve districts, and each year as a reminder that these districts are controlled by the Capital, they have a reaping. The reaping chooses one boy and one girl from each district from the ages 12-18 to go into an arena and fight to the death. The book is gripping and heartwarming at the same time. These books are worth reading.

I don’t usually read but when I heard about the Hunger Games and how intriguing they were, I had to find out for myself. I also didn’t think I would be interested in this type of book because of the bizarre concept involving violence and death among teenagers but I ended up loving it.
ReplyDeleteI comletely agree with you, I saw The Hunger Games in Barnes and Noble and i thought "why not it sounds kind of interesting" (at athe time not knowing what it was about) and i fell in love with it. I sat down in the isle for well over an hour just reading it, and I became a huge fan.
