Hunger Games

I started and finished The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins in about a day and a half. I will never, EVER look at books the same way again. Every book I read will now be compared to The Hunger Games. This was the best book I have ever read. I couldn't put it down.
What the general plot is, is Katniss Everdeen is a tribute (player) in the Hunger Games of Panem, the country America became after the third World War (or a war along those lines). Panem is a very poor country thats been divided into 13 districts, but the Hunger Games are an annual competition between the districts where a boy and a girl from each district is chosen at random to go into an arena and literally fight the rest of the 23 kids to the death. Whoever is the last living is the winner, and is showered with riches and gifts after a life of poverty. Katniss goes with a boy named Peeta from her district and they eventually become allies and decide no to kill each other.
Suzanne Collins does an incredible job with suspense, figurative language and Katniss's dark, sarcastic humor. This book is incredible and Collins writes in a way that addicts the reader to the book from the first chapter.
