In Panem there are twelve districts outlying one capitol city that controls them all. Each district provides a certain service that keeps the capitol running, such as coal from the mines in district twelve, or lumber from district 7. This dystopian post-apocalyptic world follows one brave girl who sacrifices her self to save her sister. In Panem they hold an annual Hunger Games Event where two tributes, a man and a women from each district fight in an arena to the death until there is a lone victor in the end. Katniss Everdeen’s adventure through the games proves her strong will to survive and fight for what she believes in. She fights for her life while opening up to the male tribute from her district. Together they defy the odds and spark hope in the hearts of the people stuck under the rule of the capitol. The President is not amused with the outcome and all of their lives will never be the same. Collins creates a world that is relatable, and not so unrealistic. She creates a compelling and suspenseful story that leaves you on the edge wanting to read more.
