Kill or Be Killed!

The Hunger Games

The novel The Hunger Games was written by Suzanne Collins, which was published September 14, 2008. This novel is about the Capitol of Panem, where the countries of North America once existed. Every year they host an event called the Hunger Games where two tributes are chosen. One boy and one girl are chosen from each twelve districts, there is only one rule: kill or be killed.  When Primrose Everdee is chosen, her sixteen year old sister Katniss Everdee volunteers for the 74th annual Hunger Games. Peeta Mellark was chosen from District 12 too. They will both be pitted against bigger, stronger representatives who have trained for this their whole lives. Only one person can live!
This book was truly amazing, I absolutely loved it. I would recommend it to everyone, especially young teens. I know it’s kind of full of violence; it’s very descriptive on how the tributes die. But I think it’s something everyone would love to read. It’s a trilogy, so be sure to read the second and third book too.
