Here are some new books I’ve read and loved:
HUNGER GAMES (AND THE SEQUEL - CATCHING FIRE) By Suzanne Collins - Just how far are you willing to go when watching reality game shows? Already we watch people getting fired. And we watch people's romances imploding. Would you be willing to watch people die? In Suzanne Collin's exciting new novels (a third will be forthcoming), she explores these issues and more in a fast-paced, tense format that will leave you eagerly picking up the sequel and counting the days until the third book hits the shelves!
