Book Review: The Hunger Games

Just recently i started reading the book called The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. At first I wanted to just take a small look at the book since my friends seemed to like it a lot. Next thing I know, i ended up reading the whole trilogy!

The Hunger Games was published at 2008, fairly recently. It has many positive reviews from major reviewers and authors. I'm not exactly sure what makes it so captivating, but I think the plot of how humans hunt other humans to survive makes it an interesting book. In addition, the following books Catching Fire and Mockingjay is as interesting and the first book, so i deffinitely recommend that you read the the books following the Hunger Games. 

 The books starts in a country called "Panem", which in present is now the united states. There are 12 districts in Panem, and then the Capital which controls all the districts. In the past, there have been wars against the districts and the capital. As a result, The Hunger Games are made. The Hunger Games assures that the districts do not revolt against the capitol, by electing 2 kids(13-18 year old) from each district and sending them to the Hunger Games. In the Hunger Games, the kids have no choice but to go against each other to fight for their lives. Katniss, the main character, faces multiple problems when she is sent to fight in the Hunger Games. There is also a hint of romance in the book, making the story more captivating.


All i want to say is that by the first chapters, you are going to get hooked. Even i ended up staying up all night just to finish the book, cause it was that good! I recommend this to anyone that like books that is about adventure.
