My First Review!

The Hunger Games

A must read of 2010! Um, this book is one of the many that I will read again and again and again and still be shocked when I read something, it was probably one of the best written books that I've read.
The Hunger games is mainly about the future of North America. It is pretty simple really, it [North America] burned to ashes, then it rose into thirteen districts. Twelve of them still remain, Every year two kids, from the ages 12-18, one female one male, are chosen to be a tribute in a thing called the Hunger Games, where you are put in a huge arena, with no food, no water and no weapons besides the ones you fight for. The kids are fighting to there death.
The story starts in district twelve. with 15 year-old Katniss Everdeen, It is the day of the reaping, she wakes up and goes to the illegle parts of district twelve, where she has gone to hunt since she was twelve. She meets up with her friend Gale, they talk about running away and having children, which of coarse they deny in the end. They go to the reaping...thats when things start to get interesting....
When Katniss's sister, Prim, is chosen for the Hunger Games, Katniss volunteers to become a tribute instead of her sister. The other tribute is chosen, Peeta Mellmark. Someone who gave Katniss bread when she was poor and hungry, [whenever she didn't hunt in the woods]
When the games begin she has to choose. Life or Love? Whats real and whats all just for the cameras?
