Recently I read a book called The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. I am aboslutely obsessed with the series as I have read it about four times no.
This book was mainly about a girl named Katniss. She wakes up one morning and realizes her sister was not in bed with her. She knew why. It was because this morning was her sisters first reaping.
The reaping is where the capitol which is llike todays government chooses the people that will fught to the death in the hunger games. The hunger games was invented when in the dark times as they call it when their was famine. So they created the hunger ga,es so each district gives one and one boy to put into an arena so they fight to the death and everyone has to watch.
So when they finally reached the square to start the reaping Effie Trinket starts out with her usuall speel of how the hunger games came to be. Finally it was time for the names to be called. They first called the girls names. The girl is Prim Everdeen. Katnisses sister.
Katniss imediately volunteers for her. Prim runs out after her and Gale has to hold her back. She goes to the capitol and eats alot.
In the middle she and Peeta (the other trubute from district) team up. They end up winning the hunger games and the go to live in the victors village.
Two things I liked about this book was that is was suspenseful and kind of true to what i think is going to happen in the future. Two things i diddnt like was it was drawn out at the part where she is at the capitol. Also thatg it was sad. I would say this books reading leve would be 12 and up. I would reccomend this book to anyone who likes books a bout dystoopian scocietys.
