Book Review : The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
This is not your typical vampire-meets-human story, it's about surviving in the brutal Hunger Games. The story is set in Panem, a badly shaped country once called "North America". It is composed of 13 districts and ruled by the Capitol or District 1. The Hunger Games is an annual event where 2 representatives from each district are put on a arena where they have to eliminate the competition by killing them. The story centers on Katniss Everdeen from District 12. Katniss is a skilled hunter who hunts for a living his his bestfriend, Gale. She volunteered herself to take over her sister's place since her sister, Primrose was one of the unfortunate ones to be drawn in the lottery of representatives. You'll enjoy how Katniss refused to be "a piece in their Games" She found ways how she can survive the Games without killing other representative and with the help of Peeta, who has a childhood crush on her, she might have a chance to win the brutal Games the Capitol enjoys.
