Okay so it's post-apocalypse I guess and there's only a few remaining survivors on what used to be North America, and is now Panem. There are twelve districts and the Capitol where all the stuck up rich people live. The people in the districts are poor and have to work for the Capitol, no pay, and they starve.

The Hunger Games started when the Districts tried to rebel. The Games are basically, kids murdering each other live on TV. They pick a boy and a girl from each district every year. Then they go into the Games and the last kid alive wins a fortune for their entire lives.

Katniss is a girl whose dad died in a mining explosion, and she illegally hunts to provide for her mom and sister. She hunts with her friend Gale. Then there's Peeta, the 'spoiled' bakers son who saved Katniss's life when she was little by purposely burning bread and having to throw it out, to her.

So Katniss and Peeta end up getting picked for the Games and they have to act like star crossed lovers to get popularity, and gifts to help them live longer. Katniss and Peeta end up winning. The rest you have to read for yourself :3
