| The Hunger GamesSuzanne Collins In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she is forced to represent her district in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before-and survival. The Hunger Games is the first in a trilogy. The 2nd installment is called 'Catching Fire' and is available now. The third is due out August 24th, 2010. There is also a movie in which Mrs. Collins is writing the screenplay herself. It's due to release in 2011. Discuss away! Remember the spoiler tags!

hmmm, I love alot of it, but I love how Katniss loved her sister so much as to actually take her spot in the games, i thought that was really brave of her, and there are ALOT of good parts from the games, but that one, it's fantastic, it shows her love for her sister.

I agree. He's just so down to earth, you know? And it's so apparent that he has loved Katniss since they've been friends.

| I want to suggest The Time Travelers Wife for next month. If you've watched the movie but never got the chance to read the book. You should! The book is amazing. The writing is like no other. It's one of the BEST love stories EVER! Twilight can't top that off, trust me. | |
