The Hunger Games is a book about Katniss Everdeen who has to overcome great odds because as soon her sister is called to be a part of the Games Katniss Everdeens life will be forever changed. Katniss before she entered the games was not your average girl because she was a huge part in her community providing for not only her family but her friend Gale also. She was a big hunter that provided food for many people.

When Katniss was in the game she found many strengths which she had to use in everyday life. When in the games though Katniss had to worry about not only herself but also Katniss' own family and Gales family because Katniss and Gale were the providers of the family which when Katniss had to leave would Gale be able to feed both families? Would Katniss' family be there if she got back?

This book is great and I personally get tired of reading books really easily and quickly but not this book. The reason is that one night I read for 5 hours straight and I thought I had read for only an hour and an half. This book really keeps moving and never has any slow points because as soon as it starts getting a little slow the book picks right back up again.

My favorite parts are when Katniss goes into an area just outside of the careers camp which just so happens to have mines lying around the camp which could blow her up so what she does is blow up the camp by shooting an arrow into a bag of apples which spills out onto a mine causing the camp to get blown to smithereens however though since she was close to the explosion causing her to lose hearing in her left ear. I not only think this is one of the more interesting points in the book because Katniss spent hours planning for it. I can relate to this because I also have hearing lost in my left ear so I can relate to her not being able to hear everything.

The Hunger Games is part of a trilogy of books, which are called Catching Fire and Mockingjay I am right now currently reading Catching Fire. I personally think if you like books that keep moving faster then you will love the Hunger Games trilogy. ...more "
