Suzanne Collins, The Hunger Games
Jun 9, 2010 Main Library, Conference Room
This thrill-ride of a book sets its story in a grim post-apocalyptic US where teens participate in a glamorous reality TV show paired with deadly gladiatorial combat. Katniss is a strong heroine, but the real action comes from the inventive threat of the arena, where all the district's select fighters compete to the death.
