The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games
*****
Suzanne Collins

This book it set in the future where there's a new government. There's 12 district and a Capitol, before there was 13 but one was bomb because of the rebellion. Because of the rebellion there's a yearly game called the Hunger Games.

In district 12 a girl named Katniss and a boy named Prim was selected with 22 more kids were putted in the arena for a battle to the death with one alive.

Before the game there's an interview and Prim told everyone that he have a crush on Katniss and from then they were known as star crossed lover. And because of this the game-makers changed the rule of one winner to two but they have to be in the same district so the viewers will stick to the show.

In the end there was only Katniss and Prim but the game-makers changed the rule again from 2 winners to one and that made Katniss and Prim angry so Katniss pulled out 2 poisonous berries and gave one to Prim and said the idea that if they eat the berry together there won't be any winners. At the last second the game-makers announced the 74th hunger games winner as Katniss and Prim. But they went in a dangerous situation because of this act and they started a rebellion against the capitol and president Snow wants to kill her.
