Book Review


1.      The Hunger Games:
In The Hunger Games author Suzanne Collins has created a fascinating dystopian world. Reading the Hunger Games can lead to interesting discussions about our own world and how reality shows, threats of war, authoritarian governments and obsession with fashion trends influence us daily. Due to the darkness of the story, it is best suited for teens and adults rather than tweens. We consider giving this book with 4 star or above average.



2.      Ender’s Game:
It should go without saying that science fiction and young adult’s fiction are not considered the most prestigious literary genres. Together with romance and crime, they belong to a vast, unregulated world of bestselling books that attract scarce critical praise. And yet, some of the works that come from this milieu continue to capture the attention and imagination of its reader's years after their release. We consider giving this book with 3 star or average.



3.      Twilight:
There's a reason more than 10 million Twilight series books are in print. Twilight, the first in the series, is the addictive story of two teenagers –- Bella, a regular girl, and Edward, a perfect gentleman and a vampire. This is the type of book you might read in just a few sittings, becoming engrossed in its fantastical world and oblivious to your physical surroundings. While not the next great thing in modern literature, it's a fun book to get lost in and comes to an end much too quickly. We consider giving this book with 2 star or below average.
