This week I am reading a book called "The Hunger Games" by Suzanne Collins. I have read it about 100 times and it's my favorite book. I have finished the book and started on the next one.

It is set in the future, when North America has a big war and North America has been transformed into 12 Districts. The city that rules over them is called the Capitol. To send a message to the next rebels, the Capitol holds annual events called The Hunger Games. It is where each of the 12 Districts reap a boy and girl between the ages of 12 and 18 to fight for life. They are put in an arena to fight to the death. Every 25 years they hold a Quarter Quell, which means a miserable twist for the tributes and more fun for the Capitol. 

16-year-old Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark get chosen for the 74th Hunger Games. But when Peeta says something in his interview with Caesar Flickerman, their lives take a surprising turn. 

Katniss with have to face decisions between love and life.........
But which one will she choose?
