The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

This is a fantastic book. I highly recommend it to anyone who is craving a exciting read, because trust me this one is full of excitement. In the ruins of a country once called North America the Panem rises. It consists of a shiny, modern capitol with 12 outlying districts… However it is not as peaceful as it seems, to remind the 12 districts about the Capitol's power the Capitol holds an annual Hunger Games, in which one boy and one girl from the ages 12 to 18 fight to the death on live TV. Katniss Everdeen, whose father died in a mining accident when she was eleven, lives in district 12 with her mother and only sister, Primrose Everdeen. But her life falls apart on the day of the reaping where she volunteers to take her sister's place at the Hunger Games. She promises to try her hardest to win, but secretly treats it as a death sentence. Will her and her fellow tribute Peeta Mellark survive everything the capitol throws at them… Or will this be thir last moments alive in district 12? And remember there is only one rule…. Kill Or Be Killed…
