The Hunger Games

Everyone is talking about the hunger games trilogy, i hear it mentioned everywhere i go and now that the first book has been made into a film I'm also seeing it advertised. 
I watch a lot of book reviews on you tube and again this trilogy just keeps appearing so I finally gave in and bought the first book  which I've just finished ... I can't get enough, its not at all what I expected it to be like and from the very first chapter i didn't want tot put it down, it was amazing! I've already ordered the next two books and I can hardly wait for them to arrive. 
The story begins with Katniss Everdeen on the day of the reaping, this is the day when twelve boys and twelve girls are chosen to compete in 'The Hunger Games'. One boy and one girl form each of the twelve districts are chosen to compete in this competition which is performed on live T.V ,the only rule is 'kill or be killed'. 
The story is mainly told from Katniss point of view and the author did an amazing job, i got completely sucked in and felt all the emotions along with the characters!
I really can't wait to read the next two books and I'm even more excited for the film to come out on 23rd March. Thank you Suzanne Collins!
