The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins Reviews
#1 in Books

Description

Publisher's Description:
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 steps forward to take her sister's place 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 will weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

    I'm not going to lie and say I was one of those people that could tell they would instantly love this book. I had heard about it but it just didn't seem like it would be my cup of tea. I kept putting it off until I was the only one at work who hadn't read it. So I borrowed the trilogy from a co-worker and over the course of 1 week, I was done reading all of them. I couldn't believe how fascinating and well written they were. I highly recommend this to anyone that loves a good book. If you've seen the movie, read the book.... it's better :)

    I could not put this book down. When I first heard about it I thought this book was for children but once I started reading it I was addicted. I read this book in 2 days and had to read the next. The story is great but the writing of the book could be a little stronger. Overall this book is a great read.

    I loved these books! The first book was by far the best, I find this the case in most book series though. It was an easy read, great to just sit down and relax with! I read them really quickly (which is a must in my busy life!) I think all age groups can enjoy this series as well. My mom-in-law loved it and so did my nieces!

    Amazing read! I couldn't put it down! Not the richest vocabulary but the words are woven together in a way that paints such a vivid picture, it really pulls you into the story and makes you invest in the characters. Read it, you won't regret it!

    I didn't read it until the movie came out. It was a great book! I would recommend it for young and old. It was one of those "can't out down" books!

    I read this book a few years ago and fell in love with the whole series.then this year they had the movie and I was so excited. But when I went to go see it I was a little bit disappointed. What I'm saying that is to either stick with the books and not watch the movie or not read the books and just watch the movies, that's what I think.
