The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

     That's right, yet another Hunger Games book review! I'm sure you, Mrs.Jensen along with all the other students who actually read these reviews are pretty sick of them being on a book that sold more than 23.5 Million copies in the United States alone. (Yalsa.ala.org) I'm sick of it just as much as everyone else, but since the book is so popular I decided to give it a try, and I have got to say, it was actually pretty fun to read. Following Katniss and Peeta along their pretty cool story that took place in a bad*** arena was not only fun to read, but hard to put down. Unfortunately, all the hipsters in the world who refuse to read this book because of the fact that is is way too mainstream for them, are really missing out. It has it's cheesy parts, which are usually taken back over by something cool or witty that Katniss says, or, well, people dying. I'd give this book a solid 8.5 out of 10, only due to its sometimes cheesy paragraphs and occasional lengthy, boring chapters, though don't not read this book because of that, because even in those boring chapters there will almost certainly be at least one cool part. If you haven't read this book yet, you might as well go buy a copy because it's inevitable that you're going to read it at some point and it really isn't all that bad. Although this may be a bit irrelevant, did you know that there are currently (including this one) 657 book reports on this website? Only 9 more until there are 666, pretty exciting for those satanic people!

Charlie, your review was nice, short, and straight to the point. Now, I am a bit nervous about your strange ending about 666. If you need any help, go to the counselers. :) Just kidding, hahah.
