Book Review of The Hunger Games (Hunger Games, Bk 1)

The Hunger Games (Hunger Games, Bk 1)


Read this book rather quickly as it was hard to put down once the games started. I thought this book was well written and kept me right in there with the action. Just like it says in the book, when things get boring, the gamemakers do what they can to make it interesting again, and that's what the author did. She made it so this book stayed interesting. I know some people are going, well this book is about kids killing kids. Yes it is. But there is a story and a reason behind it. It isn't because its for "fun" it's because all the citizens have to be reminded of something from long ago (won't spoil it). As for that affecting our kids today and this being a "bad" book for them to read.....I've seen worse stuff on TV and in real life.
