Oh my goodness! I have read so many good books lately and am just so excited! Y'all I read this book in literally 2 sittings. Granted one of them kept me up until 2 AM! So good that I did not peek ahead, just kept on reading. I really wanted to read ahead, but I knew that would ruin the book for me.
Anyway, this book is set in the future. North America has undergone numerous natural disasters and a new country has formed... it consists of The Capitol and 12 districts. The districts tried to revolt 70 something years ago. Now each year the Capitol chooses a boy and girl (12-17 year old) from each district to compete in The Hunger Games. The kids fight to the death in a huge arena. This event is televised each year {almost like reality tv gone horribly wrong...}. The main character Katniss is one of the contestants.
My recommendation is that you get in your car and get to the book store NOW! I cannot wait to read the next two books! My sister brought them over tonight! And y'all read these quick, because they are going to be made into a movie! :)

Peeta! But, I don't feel as strongly over the decision as I did with Team Jacob. ; )
