The Hunger Games- Short Review.

The Hunger Games (aka the new twilight)

Only the latest tweenage pot of literary gold could get away with marketing a storyline involving ritual child slaughter and warning people never to disagree with their governments, to children. 

‘The Hunger Games’ plot in a nutshell, revolves around 13 districts of the fictional Panem who each must nominate a child between the ages of 12 and 18 to compete in the annual Hunger Games, fighting to the death until only one victor remains.  The female heroine, Katniss Everdeen, is chosen from the poorer district of 13, and has qualities not unlike the last biggest female heroine in tweenage literature, Bella Swan from Twilight. As Bella was a mere human, Katniss is a mere lower class coal miners daughter.

Overall, a pathetic piece of literature, and unfit for publication let alone movie rights, although could be helpful if you run out of toilet paper.
