When his little sister is chosen to participate, Katniss not hesitate to take his place, determined to demonstrate its firm and determined attitude that even in desperate situations, there is room for love and respect.
Personal Opinion
The truth is I can not comment because I have not read yet, but I am raising money to buy it someday (ay! here in Chile is that the books will cost a pretty penny ¬ ¬)
Personally there are 4 books that I have to read whether or if in my life: Shadow Hunters saga (which I read), the host stephanie meyer (already read), Graceling by Kristin Cashore (which I just bought and I will read) and Hunger Games is going to be my next Shopping:)
