Hunger Games!!

So really all I have been reading lately is the Hunger Games Trilogy by Suzanne Collins. I loved them, an amazing story. Though her writing technique is not the best (I mean several typos and added words to make the sentence make no sense at all!), Collins can write a really good story. The three books, Hunger Games, Catching Fire and Mockingjay, are written from main character Katniss's point of view. It's all present tense, which makes some sentences a little awkward, but it works. It is based in the future North America Continent, and the Capital has total control over the surrounding 12 districts. The Capital is evil. Period. about 75 years before the first book there was a rebellion against the Capital, which the capital won, destroying District 13 in the process. Now the Capital holds annual Hunger Games to remind the people that they are in control. The Hunger Games are a fight to the death between 24 children between the age 12-18. Last one standing wins. It's horrible and the story follows Katniss and her new friend Peeta through the games. Between all three books, there is not any good ending, to the books to the chapters, until Mockingjay. The story never stops it just goes and goes and goes. Awesome story, highly recommended, a great read!

Well, that's pretty much it.
