    <body><![CDATA[&quot;The Hunger Games&quot; was a hard book to put down. It pulled you in from the very beginning. It was a little creepy to think that I was so  engrossed in a book about a game where it was kill or be killed, but luckily there wasn't too much blood and gore, although the last death was very gruesome. Yes, I'm a wimp! I loved the characters Katniss, Gale, Peeta, and Rue (to name just a few), and was cheering for them all the way. Teenagers to adults who like science fiction will probably really like this book. Now the question is; do I read the sequel?]]></body>
