Hunger GamesHunger Games by Suzanne Collins –In a far-future United States, a cruel Capitol keeps order by demanding an annual tribute for its Hunger Games, in which two contestants, a boy and a girl, are chosen by lottery from each of 12 districts to fight to the death in an event televised from an arena. Katniss Everdeen lives in what used to be Appalachia and is now called the Seam-a dirt-poor district without much hope of success in the games. Katniss volunteers in her sister’s place and may just have the smarts to win. Then Peeta, the soft baker’s son chosen from her same district, does something surprising. He declares his undying affection for Katniss just before they enter the arena. Is there room for friendship, loyalty, or even love when survival is on the line?

 

Catching FireCatching Fire by Suzanne Collins– The second in this trilogy is just as good as the first and will leave you waiting earnestly for the third volume to be printed.  I can’t give you any details because it will give away the ending to the  Hunger Games
