The Hunger Games is about a 16 year old girl named Katniss Everdeen who lives in District 12 (Panem) with her mother and her sister. There is an annual hunger games every year. They have to choose one girl and one boy. There is a draw that decides these people. Katniss loves her family and she would never want her sister to be chosen. But when this ordeal happens, Katniss takes her sisters place as a volunteer to take part in The Hunger Games. Her and a boy named Peeta. There are many captions and rules that follow the hunger games. Only one person can win the hunger games in all (out of 25 children ranging from 12-18 years of age). You have to read the book to find out who will be the champion of the one and only Hunger Games.
I actually found the main character Katniss not really interesting. I could not connect to her and I didn't like her personality even though she was the protagonist. I liked Peeta's personality, but there were some downs to it. He seemed a little but strange. I didn't like the way he explained one of the climaxes. I like all the other characters including: Haymitch, Cinna, Mrs. Everdeen, Primrose (Prim),etc.
Overall, I am going to rate this book the city of London. I didn't find the book that wonderful. The ending was not very good and a little bit stopped at a weird place. I found that the action was only for about 100-200 pages of the book. I personally think that the characters were not my favourite and I could not connect to them at all. That is why I rate this book a London.
I rate this book: 
If you are going to read this book, the climaxes are intense so be prepared.
