The Hunger Games (2012)
Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love. The world will be watching.

oofchildrenWednesday, November 27, 2019 at 1:00 pmThis book was just amazing! There was action, adventure, and reality in some parts. The characters were very serious and I feel that this was needed to make the movie how it was. I would recommend this book to anybody that likes action but if you don't like seeing dead people, then this isn't for you at all!
amberleyarmySunday, July 14, 2019 at 12:01 pmThis is one of my favorite movies and book ever. There is 16 year old Katniss and her little sister who is chosen to take part in the Hunger Games. A deadly competition where only one can survive . Katniss, decided to play for her sister but it's a big especially since everyone's fighting to survive and win. But there's another boy named Petra who becomes one of her friends during the games but eventually they separate and Katniss is fighting for her life so she can go back home. But she likes Petra a lot so maybe they could both survive and win the games.

In the ruins of North America, twelve districts forced to send a boy and girl to compete in the hunger games. Primrose,a girl picked from district 12. But her sister Katniss Everdeen took her place instead. Katniss and Peeta (the boy picked from district 12) were the ones headed toward death at the Hunger Games. The Hunger Games are a brutal Championship where 2 children from each district are challenged against each other in till 23 are dead and 1 lives. During the Hunger Games Katniss and Peeta are not fighting to win they are fighting to survive. (But isn’t the same thing). Along the way Katniss makes a friend Rue (who eventually dies) Peeta and Katniss are working together because they are in the same district. But eventually they are working together for life and love.Along the way there are ceremony problems. Will Katniss and Peeta get back to district 12?- I love the book and watched the movie it was SSOOO GOOOOOD!
