I decided to read this book because I heard about it. I recommend this book because it has some very interesting parts because you want to see what happens to Katniss next.

Could you survive on your own, in the wild, with everyone out to make sure you don't live to see the morning?
In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before - and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Collins delivers equal parts suspense and philosophy, adventure and romance, in this searing novel set in a future with unsettling parallels to our present.

well it isnt superb but it is interesting
its not THAT bad but it needs more to it i think its OK but i don't like ti that much
best book series ever!
I am purely obsessed with this series. It is my life and if anyone criticises it, I get very mad. I recommend everyone to read this because Suzanne Collins wrote this so it is action packed, but not scary. And remember kids, always read the book first. Even though the movie is perfectly adapted to the big screen, the book is amazing. Suzanne has touched perfectly on romance and action in this spine-tingling read.
Agreed! That was PERFECTLY said.
It looks nice that's why I wanna read it!!!!
