The Hunger Games

     Sadly I was not able to update yesterday :( due to testing...but not a big deal because I'm back!!!
Today I wish to talk about a book series i have begun, its called The Hunger Games and I must say I am quite impressed with it. I have started on the second book called Catching Fire, and the first book is called The Hunger Games. It is quite an amazing series and you guys should check it out.

     The first book The Hunger Games is the introduction into what is known as the country of Panem and encompasses the main character Katniss as she is involved in what are known as The Hunger Games. These are games that the Government, called the Capitol, in the book have set up were each district surrounding Panem must select two people and send them to the Capitol to Participate in a huge fight to the death. The people that are selected are between the ages of twelve and eighteen. Katniss has a little sister named Prim who gets selected but Katniss instead takes her place and is paired with Peeta, another huge character in the series, and is sent to the Games. The Games were set up because, what is told to us in the book, there was some uprising in Panem and the Games are the Capitols way of "keeping things in line". Only one person may arise victorious from the arena but I will not spoil it, you have to read for yourself if you wish to buy the book here is the link. The Hunger Games

This is an AMAZING series and I strongly recommend this to anyone who enjoys YA literature.

Thank you all for reading!!!
