      The Hunger Games is an amazing book I have read it many times. Every time I read The Hunger Games it never gets any worse only better. It is an amazing book. I sugest that any one over the age of 10 should read it. The Hunger Games is an adventure, action, romance, and sometimes government book, so this is a book for everyone. I feel that Suzanne Collins way of writing this book and the rest of the series was very strong it was never dule I was always intreaged I never wanted to put the book down it always gets you thinking and realizing things you may have never noticed before.
