Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games enthralled me with its constant action and unique plot. Theme, characters, and the plot are very important in this great book.
First off, one thing in the book is even if you have a difficult life- whether its family problems, poverty, or any other difficulties, never give up. As the cliche says "If life gives you lemons, make lemonade." Katniss, the main protagonist, has a very rough life, yet she struggles on every day of her life since her father died to bring food to her mother and sister.
Next, the characters were really quite interesting. Katniss was the protagonist of the story. She took her sister's place in the Hunger Games when her little sister's name was called out. She is very brave and smart. Although Katniss isn't as strong as the other career tributes, she manages to survive for a very long time in the games.
Finally, the plot to me, was very interesting and exciting. It starts off telling about Katniss and her friend, Gale's life before she volunteered in her 12-year old sister's place to be in the dangerous and deadly Hunger Games. The boy tribute for District 12 was Peeta, the boy who helped Katniss out when she was very young and during the games to survive as long as they could. In the Hunger Games, 24 tributes fight to the death to survive, but only one person will be named champion and brought home to their district as the victor. There were many grueling deaths and some close calls, but Katniss and Peeta survive until the top ten survives were left. With ten tributes left, will Katniss and Peeta survive? Read Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games to find out.
In summary, I recommend this book to young adults who enjoy action/adventure books.
