Life or Death


                                  Hunger Games

If you were with 23 other people to fight to the death what would you do? Hunger Games was an action packed book that 24 contests have to fight to the death and whoever wins lives their life of wealth and riches. The Author “Suzanne Collins" was trying to tell the readers what it was like for some people who didn’t have a lot of money or were poor. Then had to put their name in for the games so that they can get food, the more drawings you put in more food you’ll get. Imagine you with 23 other people trying to survive by fighting to the death with only a bow and arrow and a drinking can but empty.

Firstly the 2 main characters in the book are Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark who had no clue who each other were. Except once when Peeta through a piece of bread to Katniss to eat sense she’s poor. Otherwise they both become the tributes from district 12 and to sell to win the games they trick everyone by thinking they are star cross lovers so that they could get sponsors to help them when hurt. But it actually turned out that they did start to love each other in the end.


 Until they got back from the games they didn’t really talk to each other that much.Katniss and Peeta were more friends than dating type but they had to tell everyone that Gale was their cousin. Or else it would cause a big deal with the press and even Katniss.If they didn’t then that would ruin their lives forever because Gale and Katniss have a thing and now Katniss and peeta kind of have a thing .so to make it real they just said Gale was the cousin so that there wasn’t any drama going around in the capitol.


What Suzanne did to make this book really interesting and to pull the reader in was the drama and the action and how the star cross lovers how they survive the games was just glorious. If you had to fight with 23 other people wouldn’t you think it would be hard to kill people u don’t even know? Suzanne did really well on the hunger games and I hope she does better on the second and third one. So far in the second one has been fantastic but has a lot of drama going on and the third one I hope it will be even better.
