The Hunger Games
October 25, 2009
Author: Suzanne Collins
This book truly qualifies for the ‘ just couldn’t put this book down’ category. Wow!!! What an adventure!!! Katniss, a young girl from District 12 (a place in the future) elects to save her younger sister from danger and compete in the yearly Reality TV Show: The Hunger Games. Thus begins the fast-paced action where Katniss is forced to obey the only rule: kill the other 23 competitors or be killed. I totally loved this book and can’t wait until the sequel arrives!! At times the dystopia was quite cruel and confronting but themes of loyalty, love and survival make this well worth the read. I would recommend this to any Year 7-10. Five-stars!!

i agree this book was one of the cant put down books and i really loved reading it. Like Miss B said there is all this and much, much more the excitement never ends so dont look at the cover and then put it down because you will be doing the wrong thing pick it up and you wont be disapointed

I’m also in the “couldn’t put this book down” category. Haven’t had such a good read for a long time!! Well written but easy to read- lots of originality – I’m also waiting for the follow up.
