          Imagine having to be in a death arena where one may starve, drown, or simply be killed by other competitors in the arena. That's what it's like in The Hunger Games of Suzanne Collin's novel about a girl named Katniss who was caught in this situation of competing in The Hunger Games.  There are twelve districts with a boy and girl elected for competing in the games.  In the end, there is only one survivor of the twenty-four contestants in the huge arena.  Katniss goes through many obstacles including dehydration, death of a companion, and love.  Of all the drama and death in The Hunger Games, there is a big role of friendship (apart from love).  Even though The Hunger Games is entertaining with the limited supplies and death in the hunger games, I would not like to play a part in it.
