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 like this book
Do you like action? The book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is filled to the last page with action. The Hunger Games is my new favorite book. I think that every living being, that can read, should read this book. The Hunger Games is about a girl named Katniss Everdeen. Katniss lives in district 12 in Panem. She volunteers to be a tribute in replacement of her sister, Prim. I would give this book 8 out of 5 stars. I know people say that all the time but, it’s true.This science fiction book has its own scary moments though. Especially towards the end….. ”May the odds be ever in your favor”
I just read the Hunger Games and I though it was the greatest book ever. I just started the second book Catching Fire and I think it is awesome so far. :)
Oh boy, where do you start with this book. If you have never read or seen this book, you probably already know the story. This book is the reason why we have "The Maze Runner", "Divergent", And many other great book and movies. This one book changed the entire system of how we read today. Full of great action, for thrill seekers. A love story, for those romantics. Full of those one-liners, for those who like a bit of comedy. Basicly, this book changed everything that we look at, the books we read, the movies we watch, it all has something to do with this book! We can all honestly say that Suzanne Collins created a marvel for us all to love, and her history of books was great too (I won't list all the book's she made, she has quite this list)! The Hunger Games, an easy 5 star, is one of the worlds greatest books to come to this Earth!
This year is the 74th Hunger Games, in the Hunger Games, you will have to fight for the survival, and the last surviver will be a winner. The Hunger games was created by the Capitol that was really cruel and harsh. Katniss Everdeen voluntarily takes her younger sister's place in the Hunger Games. In the game many people helped her to survive. There was a boy that was selected from district 12 he will team up with her and fight together. At the end they both win. Since Katniss won this game, she helped her family a lot. Now that the Capitol knows how hard to control her. This a awesome book, it is much better than the movie, more dramatic, I recommend this book.
Its a very sad, bloody, and amazing book! The others books, (Catching Fire and Mocking Jay) Are also very good. If you look I have also done a response on them. #IHeartHungerGames
