      Tre stelle e mezzo, dai. Ambientato in un futuro prossimo in cui i distretti di uno Stato nato dalle ceneri degli USA devono sacrificare ogni anno due ragazzini che vanno a combattere fino alla morte in un reality show stile grande fratello. Storia molto avvincente e alcuni spunti molto interessanti e inquietanti.

      Il punto debole sono i personaggi principali, cloni di Bella e Edward di Twilight, ma al rovescio: lei cacciatrice spietata e bravissima, lui bamboccione innamorato incapace.

      Pero' la voglia di leggere il secondo libro della saga resta.
      ---------------------------- -----------------------

      Not a bad plot for this book set in the near future, where kids are obliged by the Government to fight in a televised violent reality show, the Hunger Game, where the winner is the one who kills all the other kids.

      The weak point of the book are its characters: they are a bad copy of Twilight's Bella and Edward, but with inverted roles. She is deadly and cool, he is useless at killing and madly in love.

      The book leaves you with the desire to read the second installment, though.

    • Easy to read with an interesting story. Characters aren't deep but you find yourself cheering for them.

      I listened to this on CD. It was very good. I was disappointed in the ending, but now that I know there is a sequel I don't feel so badly about the ending.

      Each year the Hunger Games pit 24 children from 12 communities against each other in a battle to the death. Only one survivor comes out alive, and his/her community then has sufficient food for the next year. A disturbing book, packed with action and conflicting emotions.

    • Read this!!!
    • One of the most interesting books I have read in awhile. I did find it a bit disturbing (as was the intent of the book I suppose) but it was so well written I had a hard time putting it down. The book was exciting the whole way through and I can hardly wait to read the second book!

      Excellent story! After North America lies in ruins, a new nation, Patem, is formed. A glorious Capital set in the Rockies and 12 districts of varying poverty. Each year 2 children are drawn by lot to fight to the death. If someone from your district wins, they live a life of plenty and train the next contestants. This is the story of Katniss who volunteers to take the place of her younger sister and fights in the Hunger Game. Very imaginative story and I am looking forward to sequels.
