Ushering in a new wave of dystopian, survivalist-tinged Young Adult fiction, the franchise is iconic in both book and movie form. Long before Jennifer Lawrence brought Katniss Everdeen to life on the big screen, however, the novels took legions of readers across the globe by storm. Of course, this popularity brought attention and controversy to the venerable series of books.Some books aren’t for everyone, but some groups believe that certain books should be unavailable for everyone. Book banning has increasingly become a widespread issue, and that’s particularly the case with Young Adult fiction. The Hunger Games is in that illustrious number, with the book being banned in some circles for its content. Given how said content isn’t exactly the most objectionable material in the world, it speaks to how Suzanne Collins’s novel series creates a strong sense of rebellion against tyrannical authority.The Hunger Games follows the story of young Katniss Everdeen — played by female action hero Jennifer Lawrence — who gets thrown into the middle of a twisted tradition mandated by the government.

Her fight for survival quickly becomes a fight for justice and family and a fight against a corrupt regime. The Hunger Games is a popular Young Adult dystopian novel that, even with its banned book status, paints an important picture for its readers.
