Hunger Games

"The Hunger Games" is a dystopian novel series by Suzanne Collins, set in a future where the totalitarian nation of Panem is divided into 12 districts, each controlled by the Capitol. Every year, two "tributes" from each district, typically teenagers, are chosen to compete in a televised event called the Hunger Games, where they must fight to the death until only one remains. The story follows Katniss Everdeen, a resilient girl from a poor district, as she navigates survival, rebellion, and the moral dilemmas of a society that values spectacle over human life. The series explores themes of power, sacrifice, and resistance.
