The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. It contains 374 pages. This is the first book in the Hunger Games trilogy. This book is about 16 yr old Katniss Everdeen whose fate brought her to annual event, the hunger games. Here, the Capitol randomly selects one boy and one girl from each of the twelve districts to kill amongst themselves until only one remains. This suspenseful and action packed book explains the theory of the survival of the fittest. It such a great book and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a thrilling adventure. I am currently waiting the next book in the series, Catching Fire. The release date for the 2nd book in the trilogy is set to be on 9/1/09.
