Opis

This title is first in the ground-breaking "Hunger Games" trilogy. Set in a dark vision of the near future, a terrifying reality TV show is taking place. Twelve boys and twelve girls are forced to appear in a live event called The Hunger Games. There is only one rule: kill or be killed. When sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen steps forward to take her younger sister's place in the games, she sees it as a death sentence. But Katniss has been close to death before. For her, survival is second nature.

Reviews:

A great young adult novel!

In the 74th Hunger Games, Katniss Everdeen's little sister, Prim, was drawn out of thousands to participate in the games. Fearing for her sister's life, Katniss volunteers herself and knows she must survive for her family's sake. For Katniss, survival is second nature.

It took me awhile to really get into the novel, but after several chapters, it really had a hold of me. With its action, twists and plots, The Hunger Games in short is a gripping story about survival in a war and poverty stricken world. Suzanne Collins has created an interesting and complex dystopian, from each districts speciality, to the rules and technicalities of the Hunger Games.

Katniss Everdeen, our heroine, is a strong, focused and motivated character, who further develops as the story unfolds. Her family values are admirable, and her switched-on personality makes her a likeable and relatable character. She is not your typical girly-girl, in fact, she's a hunter and looking pretty is the least of her concerns.

Apart from Katniss, The Hunger Games is laden with various fun and interesting characters. Peeta and Gale, the two male leads, form a love-triangle with Katniss. Gale being her bestfriend, and Peeta, her Hunger Games companion. Both boys have their good qualities and flaws, and both very important to Katniss. Then we have her sister, Prim, and her mother, Haymitch, Effie and the Hunger Games supporting team of designers and make-up artists. And of course there is Katniss' Hunger Game competitors from each district; each player holds their own unique character traits.

Overall, The Hunger Games is a great young adult novel. It's a quick and easy read, a page turner, and very engaging. Its plots and twist will keep you amused and interested through out. Highly recommended! by BookishNature.com
