What day does the games begin in the Hunger Games?
The movie to this fantastic series comes out on March 23, 2012. all three books have already been released, and if you mean to ask what it is, it's a book that's rapidly gaining popularity from what I've seen of it. It's part of a trilogy following a girl named Katniss Everdeen who has taken part in The Hunger Games twice in a post-apocalyptic world. The Hunger Games are actually one barbaric game for survival Katniss and friend Peeta Mellmark are forced to play by The Capitol, the head of all the Districts. Katniss and Peeta are part of District 12, clearly the least popular district in the book. In the Hunger Games, they are forced to fight against two citizens from each of the other districts, totaling to 24 "tributes."
In the Games, Katniss and Peeta somehow gain a reputation of "star-crossed lovers," and seeing this, the Capitol announces a rule change in the middle of the Games, saying that two tributes from the same district may win the Games as a pair, rather than only one victor allowed. Hearing this, Katniss searches for Peeta but finds him wounded, and plays the part of a teenage girl falling in love to gain favor with the audience and gifts from her sponsors.
When Katniss and Peeta are finally the last two tributes left, the Gamemakers suddenly reverse the rules and state that there can once more only be one winner, but the couple threatens suicide, hoping they would rather have two victors than none. It works, and Katniss and Peeta are both awarded and congradulated in the Capitol as winners of the 74th annual Hunger Games, but their mentor and former Games victor, Haymitch Abernathy, warns them that after defying the Capitol so publicly, they are political targets, and the book ends there. The second and third installments are called 'Catching Fire' and 'Mackingjay' by Suzanne Collins.
