Books have this power of dragging us from reality and throwing us into the world of imagination. One such book that has blown my mind away is 'The Hunger Games' by Suzanne Collins. This book is the first novel of 'The Hunger Games' trilogy. Written in the voice of Katniss Everdeen, it drives us to the future where THE CAPITOL has this whole control and power over the nation. From how an older sister protects her little sister and keeps the promise of trying hard to win the game, the story grip kept me turning on the pages. The time I read this book, I had engrossed myself in it so much that it was hard to get out of it. I liked Gale's character. How he has fiercely devoted himself to Katniss and her family throughout. And also Peeta, who has been a symbol of love, hope, kindness, and generosity. He has been coordinating Katniss's impulsiveness and volunteered to shield her in the arena. The two male characters have been an immense support system in Katniss Everdeen's journey in the book. To be fair, every character has their part so amazingly written and described that this book had me in its grip throughout. The concept of reality shows in a twisted fashion has been so relatable. How enthusiastic people can get to watch others try to survive in 'The Arena'. This book is a portrayal of love, sacrifice, will power, working as a team, survival, and so much more. All in all, this book has been an amazing read for me and I would recommend it to everyone. This book is clearly on my favorite list.
