The Hunger Games is a descriptive, horrifying long novel. Suzanne Collins has created a hit trilogy; The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and The Mocking Jay. Although most people love this trilogy and worship it, I do not. I found this book to dragged on. I usually love science fiction books, but this one was foul.


This book is about a 17 year old girl, Katniss Everdeen, who lives in a society that is distributed between 12 districts. They have an annual hunger games; which is a competition to the death for more food and a reward for yourself and your district. The capital sends a representative to each district along with past year winners to pick one boy and one girl to be apart of the annual hunger games. If you are chosen you go to the capital and are shipped off to an arena where the fighting will take place. When the bell rings the fighting begins, along with the mizery.


Although, in my belief, the book was quite repulsive. Most people do believe that this is one of the greatest books they have ever read. I thought it was too descriptive, it was almost like when you are sitting at a graduation and they teachers just won’t stop talking. Even though I did not like the book, I would still recommend it. I would recommend The Hunger Games to teenagers and young adults because so many people have loved this book I feel as if my opinion is just one tiny fish within a large ocean. In spite of the fact I didn’t like the book, I still got a moral from the story. Within all of the dreadful moments you have to trust yourself to be able to survive
