The hunger games

 
 Winning will make you famous.
 Losing means certain death.
In a dark vision of the future a terrifying reality TV show is taking place. Twelve boys and twelve girls are forced to appear in a live event called the hunger games. There is only one rule: kill or be killed.
When sixteen year old Katniss Everdeen steps forward to take her sisters place in the games, she sees it as a death sentence. But Katniss has been close to death before. For her survival is second nature.

The hunger games is a book you just don't put down until it is finished the constant suspense makes it impossible. A very long time ago there was a rebellion against the capitol which the capitol stops and as punishment they create the hunger games to keep the districts inline. Katniss has to look after her family after her father dies and that includes taking her sisters place in the abomination which is the hunger games along with a acquittance called Peta.  They meet a past winner called Haymitch Abernathy who helps them to win no mater what, he has got to be my favorite charecter due to his personality.
I loved this book and i found it really easy to sympathies and feel for most of the characters like any other book there are characters you are supposed to hate and those characters you grow to hate with a passion. The journey this book takes you through is one i can assure you, you will never forget.
