The Hunger Games

New book for book club: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins. Could NOT put it down. On to the second book already. The 3rd and final book comes out this August 24th :)

I should be completely revolted by the subject matter: kids forced to kill each other for the amusement of their government and to as a means of keeping the people in line. However, I find Collins' writing style, characters and the world of Panem absolutely captivating.

Really looking forward to this book club discussion and for the final book to wrap things up.

  1. Aspen, I love the fact that you get involved in book clubs, trivia games, and other activities in your area! You benefit and so do all the people you touch. You go, girl!

  2. Read both of them this past winter...I agree with you completely Aspen. I can't wait for the third! If you haven't read them yet, you might enjoy the Mortal Instruments series.
