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.

(sorry, clicked post too early)However, all the great qualities of this book make you forget about that part. One of the best reads yet!
I love love loved this book! A romantic, fantastic and action-packed novel. The only thing that I found a little tiring, and everyone would agree with me, the author repeated 'the reaping' several times. However, all the great qualities of this book

This is an amazing book. It gave me chills. It is a fight for love and life. If you read this book you will want to read the rest of the trilogy. This book will make you want to see the movie but, you have to read the book first because it is better.
The Hunger Games is a really good book by Suzanne Collins. It is about a girl named Katniss who volunteers for her sister to participate in the Hunger Games, a game where children are forced to fight to the death in an arena created by the Capitol. This book is a great example of how the government takes over in some societies.
this book is amazing! Its about a girl named Katniss who takes her sister Prims spot in the hunger games with Peeta. I REALLY recommend this book!
