The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

       Are you looking into reading an action-packed book? If so, why not read The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. The book is falls under the realistic fiction category. The book starts out in District 12 of a country called Panem, a country made from the remains of North America. The main characters are Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. Katniss is a teen-age girl. Her life drastically changed when Reaping Day came Katniss and her close friend Gale felt that they had no shot to be forced into an arena with 23 other competetors fighting for their life. Sure enough, Katniss' sister Prim-rose got picked, Katniss thought Prim would have no chance in the arena so volunteered as tribute otherwise known as taking her place. She is now on the brink of life and death, will she come out on top?

     This book was very interesting mainly because all of the suspense. Another reason why it was interesting was because it was told in first person. Giving you all of Katniss' thoughts and opinions on the games. I also like the very detailed action. The action is very interesting and makes you get focused into the book.
