Who would like this book? Anybody who likes action books and can handle a decent-sized book with some people dying would like this book.
The goods on this book: I like how the book changes settings often and has a lot of action. The book is about a time after North America has fallen, and there are 12 standing districts across the land. Every year, each district sends a boy and a girl to compete with 22 other people in a fight to the death. The book is descriptive and holds the reader’s attention really well. The book also takes a lot of twists and turns along the way while the tributes are fighting towards victory. The way it describes the people’s outfits is also different. Katniss faces a lot of trouble with family and survival.
