I think I'd have to qualify Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins as one of my favorite books. I've always like the weird stuff, a little futuristic sci-fi, but this one is one of those stories that will appeal to anyone who likes action, suspense, and a little romance. The idea is that there is no more US, after famine, wars, etc....there are now twelve districts instead. Every year, the government holds the Hunger Games. Two teenage representatives are sent from each district to participate in a fight to the death. The person who is left can go back to their district with extra food and supplies while the rest of the districts have to suffer without. Katniss is the main character, a survivor in every sense of the word. She is sent to the Hunger Games and has to try to survive.
Anxious for the next one, I went to Suzanne Collin's website and found NO infomation about the sequel. Nothing. Sigh.
However, I just discovered on Amazon that the sequel, Catching Fire, is coming out on September 1! I will be pre-ordering that!
Happy reading!
