Suzanne Collins has made it to the top of my most favorite authors list with her book, The Hunger Games. Taking place in future America this story has everything anyone would ever want in a novel. Filled with enough adventure and action to raise your blood pressure, The Hunger Games is a great book for anyone that is interested in survival,love,friendship,and honor. The story revolves around a young woman named Katneiss Everdeen whose only goal is to keep her family and herself alive. She is a character that risks her life everyday to put food on the table and even chooses to part take in an evil game that might end her life. Living in a city where the leaders make sure that everyone follows their orders, they have created a game that selects 24 teenagers who are randomly chosen each year to be placed in an arena and forces them to fight till only one of them survives. This is bad enough but every move they make is watched by everyone in the country. No pressure huh? But unlike most of the other kids, Katneiss volunteers herself to participate only to save her little sister. Its a large risk to take but once one of them outsmarts the rest and becomes the last one standing they are automatically given all the riches anyone would ever need. Suzanne Collins does a wonderful job bringing the adventures of Katneiss to life in this unforgettable book. I promise that once you begin you will not be able to put the book down till you get to the very end. Every page of this book reveals a surprise that no one could have ever predicted.
