The hunger games is set in the not-too-distant future, North America is divided into districts 1-12 and the Capitol. The twelve districts ar run by the capital and president snow, each year a boy and girl (aged 12 to 18) from each of the twelve districts are picked to fight in something called the hunger games. The hunger games is a tournament where the 24 children are put into an arena and have to fight each other to the death, the last remaining, "tribute" are they are called, is winner and get a parade, food, medicine, a house and other thing for his/her family.

The story revolves around a 16 year old girl named Katniss, the tributes and picked in a draw each year, each girl and boys name goes in for it, Katniss and her younger sister Prim are both in the draw, Prim's name is called and Katniss volunteers to take her place, also a boy name Peetas name is called and there are both in the tournament. It's a awesome book series that sadly some idiots think it's next Twilight. The Hunger Games is NOT like Twilight. First off Katniss is a strong and brave female character unlike Twilight's main character Bella. Second of all although the Hunger Games does have romance in it it's not all about that and is more focused on surviving the Hunger Games. And last but not least the plot in the book is actually good. So please do not say it's the next twilight.If any thing it's the next Harry Potter.
Guy 1: Are you excited for the Hunger Games movie?
Guy 2:No way! It's just the next Twilight.
Guy 1:Do you even know what it's about?
