The Hunger Games ~ The BOOK!

I know, books aren't movies, but you can do anything while eating popcorn! 


The movie for the Hunger Games came out last month, but I didn't watch it. The reason? I didn't want the movie Katniss, Peeta, Gale , Haymitch, Effie, Prim, Rue, and all the other characters to take over Katniss and the others which I made from my thoughts.


Have you read this AMAZING book?


I would if I were you (even though I already have ~ hehe)


Plot! Plot! I'm getting to that! I know you are curious, and you want to know more...


Here it goes:


The Hunger Games is set in Panem, a country which rose out of the ashes of North America. Here, there are 12 districts : 1-12


Katniss Everdeen's story begins in District 12, the poorest district. She wakes up on 'Reaping Day', where the citizens of each district from ages 12-18 are picked for the annual "Hunger Games". Katniss has never participated, but she knows the aim is to be the last remaining survivor to be the winner. Citizens print their names on pieces of paper, and are fished out from a large bowl. Each district has two tributes; a boy and a girl.


No, Katniss isn't reaped this year. Her sister, Primrose Everdeen, 12 years old, is. Katniss, being a 16 year old girl living only with her mother and sister, volunteers as a tribute.


Katniss and Peeta Mellark* are now in the 74th annual Hunger Games. They are friends, but enemies...


Who will survive?


*Read it yourself! I'm not giving you the answer!
