The Hunger Games
by Suzanne Collins
View in Library Catalog
book cover


The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins is a science fiction and the first book in The Hunger Games series. Personally, this book is the best out of all the three books in the series. The book is mainly about a society in the future where the government has all power over the citizens and rules over them. Every year, they hold an event where all 12 districts in the country send one boy and girl tribute from the age of 12 to 18 to the hunger games. During the hunger games, the goal is to be the only child left (unfortunately, the others get killed). When the main character, Katniss Everdeen's sister gets called as a tribute, Katniss steps up to volunteer to go instead since she didn't want to put her sister in danger. The story focuses on the journey of Katniss during her time in the games. Near the end of the book, she does something that is considered as an act of rebellion against the government. So, this action leads to the second book. Overall, I think that this book is worth reading because it is action-packed and there is always something new that you learn about on every page. However, some parts of the book are violent so it might not be the best option for kids.

This book was no fun at all. I think that there was no comedy or challenging point for the character so I got bored.

Lu

Lu by Jason Reynolds is the last book in the track series. Personally, I thought that this book was second best (after the first book, Ghost). This book was mainly about Lu and his different points of views of the track team, the coach and the big secret that his dad is keeping. I really enjoyed reading this book because of its twists and turns. Also it was very interesting to see how characters that Lu thought he knew show a totally different side of themselves outside of school or outside the track.
