The Hunger Games is a 2008 young adult novel by American writer Suzanne Collins. It is written in the voice of 16-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives in the post-apocalypticnation of Panem, where the countries of North America once existed. The Capitol, a highly advanced metropolis, exercises political control over the rest of the nation. The Hunger Games are an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12–18 from each of the twelve districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised battle to the death. It shows how for love people sacrifice everything, in this case it was Katniss who took her little sister's place in the Hunger Games. It also shows strategy and people trying to survive out in the wilderness. It shouldn't be on request to be banned on anything, it's a completely good and wonderful book.
