novel o choice 2

So far I am pretty well entertained by my novel of choice the hunger games. While it is rather haunting the thought that I might actually live to see the day that this kind of scenario becomes reality, the novel itself is still a good read. The story line is interesting with several un expected and a few expected twists, and the extensive detailed descriptions of the environment and the characters involved at any given time really paints a vivid image of what is going on in the story in the readers mind. I am a fairly picky reader and I really like this book. It is a well written book that includes obvious fictional elements combined with just enough realism that you often find yourself imagining yourself in the nation of Panem as a spectator of the hunger games wanting to look away but un able to, much like a car crash. Despite the brutality and grisly deaths in these bloodbaths the whole nation is forced to watch as two children from each of the twelve districts participate in a fight to the death as punishment and deterrent of rebellion. However, the hunger games ironically causes the main character Katniss to ATTEMPT to kill the president of the capital and start another rebellion
