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.

I saw The Hunger Games at my school library and I decided to read it. Everyone had told me it was AMAZING. They were right! I could not put it down that's how good it was. I read the whole series and was so pumped when I found out they were making it a movie. Go TEAM PEETA!

This book was amazing. It is intended for older readers because of some graphic content, but amazing all the same. Ask your parents before you read this book! It is cleverly written, with a very well structured plot line. Collins hardly uses the same adjective twice. The amazing thing about this series is the conceivability of it all. It isn't pure science fiction. This could very well happen in the future and I believe that Collins could see that.
this book is the bomb. once i picked this book up i could never put it down. i found myself taking it with me wherever i went. one time i fell asleep reading it. and when i found out that there was a second one i couldnt help but read it too. then i read the third book because there was such abig cliff hanger at the end of catching fire
I loved it wanted to read it again and again. Glimmer Go District 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,and 11. most of all district 12!
