Dear Suzanne Collins,

I have recently stareted reading your last book in your Hunger Games series; Mockingjay. I liked reading the first two books, and so far the third book. I knew this was a very popular series, but i didnt know why. Now that i have read more than half of the series, i know why. I believe it is because of the action, romance, tragedy, comedy, and even the fact that teenagers could relate. There is a lot of action in these books, this is from all of the killing, and even the fact that they have uprisings, or have to live alone in the arena. There is also some romance, this is from the "love" Peeta and Katniss "share", I put quotes around love and share because as readers their love is on and off both for the capitol and for themselves. Gale also comes into play becasue him and Katniss seem to love eachother when they kiss. There is tragedy from all the death and corruption in the capitol. It is also tragedy that katiniss goes into the games twice. It could be a comedy because, some jokes are in the books, not as much as the other elements. I think the fact that Haymitch is a "drunk" could be comical in that sense. And one of the big elements would be that teenagers can realte, i think this is because Katniss is a teensger too, meaning we can easily put ourselves into her shoes. These are many of the main reasons I like these books, and why i think the rest of your readers enjoy these books.

Thanks for reading,
