The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Review by Miss Tammy

 

It's the ultimate reality show. The whole nation watches as 24 teenagers are placed in a cruel arena. To survive they must fight hunger, the environment, the game, and each other. The winner will be lavished in riches and glory. The losers will die.
 
Katniss is used to having to fight to survive.  She breaks the law to hunt in the forest to provide food for her family.  She's learned how to trade and barter to get what she needs.  But is it enough to survive the Hunger Games?  And how can you possibly win when doing so will mean killing someone you care about?
 
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is not just a good book, it's an amazing book.  Collins has written a book that will take you through a range of emotions while making you think, yet the book is still a quick, easy read.  The best part?  It's the first in what promises to be an amazing series.
