Book/Movie Review - The Hunger Games - Suzanne Colins


Good day my fellow pixies!

Today will be a cross between a book review and a movie review. Based on the title, I'm sure you already know that this will be on The Hunger Games aka the best book I have ever read! This series is a trilogy, which will be soon published also, although the Mockingjay (the third book) movie review will not be out until November when the second part to the movie comes out (THE SUSPENSE!!). There are 3 books to the series and (of course) I have read all 3 and am planning to re-read each of them.

It starts off with Katniss Everdeen (portrayed by Jennifer Lawrence), going out of her district boundaries into the woods to meet up with her best friend, Gale Hawthorne (portrayed by Liam Hemsworth). The 2 of them watch from behind a bush as a blimp flies over them.
I won't go over it in too much detail, but basically, Primrose (Willow Shields) cries because she doesn't want to go into the hunger games, they go to the assembly where they announce who will go into the arena and Prim gets called out. Being the brave, older sister, Katniss volunteers to take her place. Then Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson) gets called from the boys category.

They go to The Capital, train for the games, then a week later are put into the arena and forced to kill one another, until only one survives.

Along the way, the way Katniss and Peeta come across Effie Trinket, Haymich Albernathy, President Snow, Caesar Flickerman, Rue, Cato, Clove, Cinna, Foxface and others.

Book rating: 10/10
Movie Rating: 9/10
