The Hunger Games

You have to read the Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins- I couldn't put this book down! I read it in two and a half days! The sequels Catching Fire and Mockingjay are just as great!
The synopsis from Barnes and Noble reads: 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.
