** spoiler alert ** VERY BIG SPOILERS SPOILERS FOR THE ENTIRE PLOTLINE OF THE BOOK CONSIDER YOURSELF WARNED PLOT SPOILERS!!!!! GO DOWN FOR ACTUAL REVIEW!!! I picked up the Hunger Games on a suggestion from my brother. I went into this series not expecting a whole lot. Now, here I am, having read the book five times and finally getting around to a review. The Hunger Games is set in post-apocolyptic North America. It's not a pretty place. It's divided into districts, each poorer than the last. District 12 is where our heroine Katniss lives. She provides for her family by hunting illegally in the woods outside her district. The book opens on Reaping Day for the Hunger Games themselves. The Districts, years ago, tried for revelution and failed. They were squished down by the Capitol and the Hunger Games were put in place as punishment. Twenty-four children (two from each district) are thrown in an arena and are forced to fight to the death. And everyone in the country is required to watch the gore. Katniss volunteers after her sister Prim's name is called. As if itwasn't enough that she was going to die, Petta's name is called as the boy tribute. He is the baker's son, and Katniss has a connection with him from when they were younger. He saved her life, in essence. They make it to the games, where Petta drops the bombshell that he has been in love with Katniss since they were children. Once inside the Games, Peeta does all he can to keep her alive, though she can;t appreciate it at the time. Katniss does her best to stay away from him so she soesn't have to kill him. Katniss aquires allies, one in particular name Rue, who is pivotal to the plot. As time goes on, children die brutal deaths and Katniss tries to stay alive. Eventually she finds out she and Peeta can both live. She plays up the romance to keep them alive, unsure the entire time of how she actually feels. Eventually it is just the two of them, and there are a few twists, ending in a dual attemped suicide and two victors for the Hunger Games. Yay!! Now on to the review! I love Katniss as a heroine. She is so complicated. She goes in expecting to die and is able to come to terms with that. This, however, in no way makes her cold and unfeeling. She is confused and degected and depressed and even happy at times. She has a value for human life that, though she is a hunter, makes it difficult to kill. To survive she does, but it haunts her. Peeta is a gem of a character. There are so few of those like him now a days. He is good down to his core. He is loyal and loving- exactly what the Hunger Games is not. He constantly puts Katniss's life before his because he loves her that much. He can be fierce when he needs to be but is just a good person down to his soul. I love Peeta. I really do. The Hunger games is a book that left me speechless many a time. The twists it takes are crazy. I cried more than once. It is a young adult book, but it's themes are heavy, though some more explored in the later books. Love, revolution, loyalty, trust, poltics. Every decision carries insane amounts of weight. Suzanna Collins is a genius. The plot is original and gripping. The writing is good, and paints vivid pictures. What you would expect from a young adult author. At the end of this book, you will the dying for the next.
