16-year-old Katniss Everdeen regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. But Katniss has been close to death before and survival, for her, is second nature. Twelve boys and twelve girls are forced to appear in a live event called The Hunger Games. There is only one rule: kill or be killed.

Enjoyable read

Easy to read and a nice story. If you already saw the movie, you won't be surprised as the plot closely aligns. Still the book adds something to the story by capturing the internal perspective of the protagonist and with some details that the movie left out. #FediBooks
