Catching Fire

I read Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins because the book was a roller coaster of emotions, the hunger games (book one) was an attention getter creating popularity for the series. You can purchase this book at http://www.amazon.com/Catching-Fire-Second-Hunger-Games/dp/0545586178. The theme for this book is to never give up on what you believe in. Family always comes first no matter the circumstances.

         

Catching Fire is about Katniss Everdeen that lives in district 12 with peeta who were the victories of the last hunger games. They were gaining popularity and had to go back into the games against the other victories of the games. The games created a rebellion that Katniss didn’t know about; she broke out of the games to a safe place known as district 13…

         

I would recommend this book to a person who is into action, adventure, rebellion, romance, “nail biting thriller”. This book is number two out of a series of three; the third book is Mocking Jay.

The Hunger Games

The book I read was The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. She wrote the rest of the books in the Hunger Games serious, and the book I read was the first of the series. In contrast to the other books she has wrote, these are very similar. They cover the same themes of love and battle, and what exactly those things mean. In this book, Katniss Everdeen, the main character, is drafted into a battle to the death between the different “districts” of the society she lives in.

               

The books is a science fiction book. It is mostly centered on what happens to Katniss during the death game, but also has points about her relationships and thoughts about the situations she is in. This is why I believe the story has conflict of Character vs Society.

               

I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Science Fiction books. The story has lots of enjoyable action and the most enjoyable thing was the focus on what is happening to the participants in the survival games. You should pick up this book right now. It is the most enjoyable piece of literature the Science Fiction Genre has to offer, so not picking it up is a big waste.

The Hunger Games

I read the book The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. This is the third book in the 3 book series. You can purchase these books on http://www.amazon.com/The-Hunger-Games-Book-1/dp/0439023521. The theme of this book is to cherish your family and you will love them no matter what the circumstances.

   

The Hunger Games is about a book where modern day America doesn’t exist. Instead of states, there are 12 districts. The main character, Katniss lives in district 12; the most poor of all the districts. every year, the capital holds an event called The Hunger Games and two children for each district, a boy and a girl must compete. In these games, you have to kill each other to survive and the last one standing is the winner.

    

I would recommend this book to someone else because it is a good, action packed book with a lot of "sitting on the edge of your seat." This book has a mixture of action and adventure and a little bit of romance. This book has received many awards including the Hal Clement award and the  Dorothy Canfield Fisher award.
