“Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.”

For my book review I chose to read "The Hunger Games" written by Suzanne Collins. The Book is part of a trilogy. The books are written in the voice of  a 16 year old girl called Katniss Everdeen trough her hard life living in a poor town and trying to fend for her family , in Panem.
The hunger games was incredibly written and thought out. South America is split into 12 districts or towns , Katniss lives in number 12 , the poorest district that produces coal. The capitol rules over all the 12 districts and to remind them of a horrible rebellion in district 13 that killed everyone who lived there, they host the hunger games.


The games are purely for the capitols enjoyment but the president claims its to remind everyone to follow the wealthy capitol and that they are on the districts sides.


The Hunger Games are an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12 to 18 from each of the 12 districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised  battle in which only one person can survive.


on "Reaping day" primrose , katniss' sister, is called to be part of the games. Katniss volunteers, and a boy Peeta Mellark in chosen to join her in her fate in the arena.


The book is full of surprises and is constantly moving at an exciting pace. Things get hard for katniss when Peeta expresses his love for her on live television in front of all of Panem. The two must help each other trough the arena , with the help of wealthy sponsors sending them food  and medicine ,while overcoming some of the strongest districts along the way.


The Book is Fast, Fierce, upsetting and sometimes humorous , and the trilogy is an incredible series of books , following life after the Games, or so everyone thinks , until you start the second and third book. The books and story keep shocking me , with its originality and suspense .


“You don’t forget the face of the person who was your last hope.” 
― Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games


   
I Would rate The Hunger Games ( Book 1) 5 stars, because I loved every moment on the book , and it was always exciting and never failed to grab my attention!
