The Hunger Games

Take a look at this trailer and tell me you are not interested! The Hunger Games written by Suzanne Collins is a book not to be missed. Without a question this is one of the best books I have read in years. This book has many elements of science fiction without being too overpowering, yet it parallels many events that are happening in today's world. In this book, the reader will go on an adventure with Katniss Everdeen. This strong headed and determined young female character is in for the fight for her life as she is put into The Hunger Games. All she needs to do...be the last one standing. With this book comes great adventure, selflessness, and a love story. I guarantee you will want to finish this book as fast as you can!

Bonus: If you love this book and want more, The Hunger Games is the first in a series. Catching Fire and Mockingjay (released August 24th) complete this trilogy.

If you enjoy the works of Suzanne Collins try reading Gregor the Overlander.
