Do you know where the author got her ambition for the book? How her personal experiences and the historical context influence her writing? I recommend the novel mainly to teens, ages 13 and up, since it is full of suspense, action and it is rather elicit because it is not only a book about a game where everyone needs to fight each other until someone dies, ut it is something much complicate that talks about how governments always want to have all the power and be in control, a nd about personal freedom, sacrifice and what it means to be yourself and not submit to societys expectations. Personally, I loved this book after thefirst chapter or so, since the novel starts moving at a fast pace that keeps you entertained and lacking(p) to know more. Also the author is very descriptive about the setting, the characters physical appearance and their feelings, that you can almost feel your in the book. http//www. scholastic. com/thehungergames/videos/classical-inspiration. htm
