The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
4.0
adventurous dark emotional hopeful tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Suzanne Collins weaves a fantastically dysfunctional little world in which a hero becomes such without any desire whatsoever. She is just trying to save her sister. Plenty of daring and the awkwardness of teenagers ensues. Pretty soon our Katniss must choose between family and heart's desire.
