A friend lent me an advance copy of this book and I really enjoyed it. It's about this futuristic society, postwar, and the "Capitol" has each district submit two young adults to participate in Hunger Games similar to the gladiators. They fight to the death while everyone watches. Well, the main character, Katniss, is the selected girl from her district and this book is about her struggle to live and her conscience. It had a slow start, but I got reeled in and couldn't put it down!
