Last week my younger brother gave me the book, The Hunger Games.  Being me I figured it would be stupid and a waste of my time, but after about two pages, I was pretty hooked.

The tale follows the teenage girl Katniss, from District 12 who sacrifices herself to save her younger sister, Prim.

Forced to participate in the Hunger Games, a gladiatorial fight to the death, Katniss is almost overwhelmed.  But with the help of the people around her she pulls through.

For anyone who wants to read about a crackshot heroine, then the Hunger Games is the book for you.
