The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games, by Susanne Collins, is the first of the Hunger Games trilogy.
Katniss Everdeen lives in District 12. Every year, every District, from 1 to 12, has a day called Reaping day. That day, everyone who is between ages 12 and 19 have there names written down and thrown into two giant balls: one for boys, one for girls. Each District selects one boy and one girl to compete in the most deadly games since the gladiators--the Hunger Games. There are 24 players, put into a special arena controlled by the Gamemakers. There is only one victor--except this time, there can be two. The boy, from District 12, Peeta, has announced his love for Katniss to the audience. In this whirlwind book, full of death, poison, and injury, who can tell what will come next?
