Panem is split into 13 districts and one rigid and cruel Capitol, but the 13th district was destroyed long ago. Each district is known for different economies. In the 12th district a 16 year old girl named Katniss Everdeen and her little sister Prim live. The Hunger Games was born when the dark days ended.

The Hunger Games is supposed be a reminder to never rebel against the Capitol power. The Hunger Games takes place every year in a huge realistic and changing arena where 2 tributes from every district would try to survive the longest in several weeks. In district 12,  Katniss’s sister Prim is chosen to participate in the Games but Katniss sacrifices herself in volunteer to replace her sister who she loves. The problem is that Katniss must compete to death against amazing fighters and she barely knows survival skills as complicated as those in the games. Katniss, who is amazing with the bow and arrow, and the other tribute, Peeta, travel to the arena, show their survival talents, and receive mentor advice for the Games. Will Katniss and Peeta survive? I loved this book because of its futuristic concept, suspense and action, and the unimaginable conflicts the characters face. This story kept me reading with its twisty plot and storyline, as well as the eagerness it provided for the sequel. -Nithya
