The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins


“Winning means fame and fortune. Losing means certain death. The Hunger Games have begun…”

Katniss is a teenager living in harsh times. She lives with her younger sister and her mother who has had problems ever since the death of her father. Every year there is a fight to the death called “The Hunger Games.” Each district must select two people between the ages of 12 and 18 to attend the games, one boy and one girl. When Primrose, Katniss’s sister, is the girl chosen at the reaping, Katniss steps forward and volunteers herself as tribute to take her sister’s place. This novel is so much better than the book that it is worth reading even after seeing the movie!

“Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor!” ~ Effie Trinket
