First book review blog!
So I'm super duper excited about my first book review blog.
Rating: * * * * *
So when I read the first chapter of this book I fell in love. Usually it takes a couple of chapters to get me hooked but this was way different.
The story follows Katniss, a teenage girl who has to care for her family. She hunts off grounds for food, skin and money just to provide. In her city, or District, there are many rules and one is the participation of two people from each District in the "Hunger Games". Now Katniss has a younger sister, Prim, who is chosen along with a boy she's only met once before, Peeta, to participate in the games. In all of the confusion Katniss volunteers to take Prim's place. The reader follows Katniss through the Hunger Games and the death and despair she encounters. Making allies and surviving the roughness and violence of these terrible games. To sum it up this story has terrifically detailed setting and characters to die for.
P.S. If you haven't read it. Borrow it from a friend, the library, just read it.
OK, Now you have me curious! I am going to start reading this book tomorrow! I have to finish what I am reading tonight. I am reading "The Help."

So far, I haven't heard of a single reader who didn't like Hunger Games! It's hard to find a follow-up to that series. However, I AM NUMBER FOUR, is my next suggestion. It has the action-adventure of Hunger Games, but is perhaps for a more mature audience than Hunger Games. I haven't seen the movie, but have heard it doesn't compare to the book at all. The sequel, THE POWER OF SIX, was just released and I plan to order a number of copies.
