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 loved this book. Its so romantic and its so amazing... I felt like I was right there with them... I could taste it.
on chapter 10 i think peeta likes katniss because it says she came here with me to the hunger games
This book is amazing. I kind of got lost in the beggining and put it down but when i picked it back up, I can't stop reading it. It has mystery, romance, drama, and everything else all made into one book. In the end I love it.
I loved this book. The only downside is that there is a lot of physical violence in this book, but that makes it more interesting. Plus I really like the characters in this book.
this book is cool and awesome because i think that it is very mixed up of feelings like actions , comedey , romance, and etc. i suggest reading this book. ppl like it so much. there is movie too. love this book. p.s read the book first
This book goes on a journey with a 16-year old girl named Katniss Everdeen. Katniss volunteers for her sister at the annual Hunger Games. Now she must face the fact that she can die or live in this world of no happiness. Ok, this is a book where things are violent and terrifying yet, it sort of comes with a happy ending. I recommend this to 10- whatever age.
This sounds like a great book. But from what ive heard of i think you should be at least 11 to read this book.
.I <3 HUNGER GAMES, Katniss Everdeen is my romodle and if you read this book team peeta or team gale? by the way ( team PEETA) Just saw the movie
it is an amazing series. i am seeing the hunger gmes for the third time on saturday. IT is going to be so fun. I love the movie it is a great movie. the movie is much better than the book. I'm dissipointed Catching Fire is rated r for violence. I think it is just fine. Please read the books. They are the best book series i think i have ever read. I will just wait for more to come out! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
