I read

This week I finished The Hunger Games. This series is quite possibly my FAVORITE series ever! I may say that about every book or series I read but this time I'm serious. The book is about two teenagers who are thrown into a bloodbath. Throughout the book Katniss and Peeta, the main characters, are the star crossed lovers as every book has and they have to make it out alive, but there' a catch....only one person is allowed out alive. The sadistic people who came up with these Games decide the Katniss and Peeta must come out alive together. I believe this book deals with a lot of issue in today’s world. The government over all the Districts is much like a dictatorship. There are 12 Districts, they range from the rich of the rich to the poorest of the poor. District 12 is the poorest district of all. Sometimes they fall victim for nothing, they are scapegoats for everything that happens almost. I ee them much like the Jews in World War II. Hitler made it seem like the Jews were to blame for everything, and in many ways the citizens of District 12 are treated the same way. I love this book because it is the perfect mix of love, action, a community coming together to help out people that live there, and friendship. Along the way many old friends become better friends and new friends get introduced. Although many friends are killed because that is the context of the games they are not forgotten by Katniss and Peeta. I think this book is amazing for all ages to read although it is a little scary at some parts. *WARNING* Do NOT watch the movie first before reading the book you will miss out on very good things!!
