Hunger Games Excitement

Excitement has been building for the first movie adaptation of The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins.  In fact, we are so excited that several branches are holding Hunger Games parties.  We plan to play trivia games, practice our capitol style or camouflague make-up, have survival training, and hold best costume competitions.  May the odds ever be in your favor, because you could win some cool prizes. 

Of course, a book started it all.  Here are some of our staff favorites that are similar to the Hunger Games. 

Blood Red Road by Moira Young

Divergent by Veronica Roth


More great dystopias.
