COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Compare to The Hunger Games submitted by Cherrytreelane on July 3, 2012, 1:46pm This was required reading for college-prep high schoolers of previous generations. Gives the reader a lot to think about, a book that will stay with you for a long time. This book was the predecessor to this generations "Survivor" style reality games, or "The Hunger Games" trilogy. Quick read that's worth the time.
