Book: The Hunger Games

I started a new book on Saturday. I have heard many people talk about how these books are really good and you can't put them down. So, I decided to check them out. I haven't gotten far in the first one but I'm anxious to see what the fuss is all about. LOL :) The first movie comes out on March 23, I'm sure I will  be done with the book way before then so I will be ready for the movie.

The Hunger Games

Summary of this book:

Katniss is a 16-year-old girl living with her mother and younger sister in the poorest district of Panem, the remains of what used be the United States. Long ago the districts waged war on the Capitol and were defeated. As part of the surrender terms, each district agreed to send one boy and one girl to appear in an annual televised event called, "The Hunger Games." The terrain, rules, and level of audience participation may change but one thing is constant: kill or be killed. When her sister is chosen by lottery, Katniss steps up to go in her place. 

I look forward to getting more into this book and reading what's it all about. :)
