Hunger_Games

=Hunger Games= In The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Katniss (the main character) finds herself placed into the Hunger Games were she must fight to the death. She is from the District 12, the last District and the poorest. It all began when her love for her little sister came out when her sister, Prim, got chosen for the Hunger Games in the first place, but Katniss takes her place to save her little sisters life.So, she goes to the Capitol with her other tribute, Peeta, to find themselves with the finest clothes, food, and shelter. Little did Katniss know that Peeta is a two-faced liar. She drifts away from Peeta in the arena, and goes to her plan of survival to stay alive. Now more than half-way through the book, there are only 6 tributes left and Katniss has befriended a sweet innocent girl, who now has gone to her terrible death and Katniss is left with the choice of winning by herself, risking the bigger chance of dying or winning with Peeta who gives her more of a chance of living. She chooses to go find Peeta and when she finds him, he is on the verge of death. Lucky for him "Katnisss to the rescue!" and they are norrowing down to the last 3 tributes... Cato, Peeta and Katniss with the idea in mind that the tributes from the same district can both win. Little did they now that lying still exists in the Capitol. The real battle for the victors has just begun.

Additionally, consider:
1)The setting was in the future America called Panem, with 12 districts and a Capitol. The main characters are Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark. They are brave and fearless! The story line is about how 2 tributes get chosen from each of the 12 districts to fight to the death in the Hunger Games. "It would be hard to miss the wall of fire descending around me." This is when Katniss came to reality about how the Hunger Games are going to treat her. The theme is overcoming the odds, and rising up to take a stand. I would recommend this novel to Middle Schoolers because it is more of a mature book...it was awesome and we loved it!!!
