the hunger games

Sorry. I couldn't handle this one. I like some post-apocalyptic dystopia as much as the next gal, but I draw the line at dead children. That's just me. Given the success of this series, I seem to be the only one who minds. That's okay. This book seems well-written and is certainly suspenseful, and I can imagine it having immense appeal for tween readers looking for some fast paced sci-fi. A movie is in development, of course.
