The Hunger Games  is a book about a 16 year old girl called Katniss Everdeen who loves in District 12. Every year there is a 'game' called Hunger Games where 2 people, one male and one female, are chosen to take part and represent their district. The capitol created this games to take revenge on when the districts rebelled and they destroyed the 13th one. The purpose of these games is to have only one survivor. This year, Katniss's small sister, Prim, is chosen to take place but Katniss volunteers instead of her. Her partner is called Peeta Mellark and he doesn't like him that much but they need to act that they are in love. Throughout the whole book it shows how they survive in the arena, how Peeta was part of the 'carriers'. A team in the arena that tried to kill everybody but Katniss turn out to be smarter than them and kills them all except Peeta. At the end Peeta and Katniss are the only ones left so they decided that they would both die by eating poisonous berries but the Game Master decided that they could but be winners since they are from the same district.

I really love this book. I first watched the movie and then read the book. It is very interesting and it has great description. I really like Katniss's character because she can be very nice but very mean and sneaky from time to time
