The Hunger Games- Suzanne Collins

I. Love. This. Book. Riveting, emotional, ah! Definitely one of my very favorites! Katniss, a young girl that is one of so many victims under the control of the Capitol, a massive dictating organization, is chosen for something called the Hunger Games, a cruel event in which two young participants are unwillingly chosen from each of the thirteen districts and thrown into an arena with nothing but their wits where they are forced to fight friend and foe to the death to stay alive, and only one victor may be chosen. She faces many predicaments, from the harsh traps and obstacles thrown at her by the Gamekeepers, to the large group of Careers, or participants that have been illegally pre-trained and are brutally ruthless and relentless, to the budding love of her fellow district member peeta. With her beloved mother, little sister, and best friend Gale, who she may have feelings for, awaiting her at home, Katniss knows she can't lose. But the twists and challenges that lie ahead are almost to much to bear. Can she win these cruel games, while also succeeding in keeping Peeta alive and spitting in the face of the Capitol without enduring the repercussions? Read this book, you will NOT regret it!
