Hunger games
Fic
Col

Collins, Suzanne. The Hunger Games. 1st ed. New York: Scholastic Press, 2008.
Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen accidentally becomes a contender in the
annual Hunger Games, a grave competition hosted by the Capitol where
young boys and girls are pitted against one another in a televised fight to the
death.

In the hunger games the main character live in one of many districts and
there is a reaping ,or a drawing of names, each district has to names drawn
and those people are gathered and taken from there districts and there are
put in an arena to fight to the death until there is only one survivor

Parents need to know that Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games is a story about a
reality show where 24 teens must kill one another until only one survives. They do so
with spears, rocks, arrows, knives, fire, and by hand. It's not unduly gory, but there is
lots of violence, all of it teen on teen. The Hunger Games was adapted for a 2012
film, and the second book, Catching Fire, was adapted for a 2014 film. The third and
final book, Mocking jay, is being adapted into two parts, to be released in 2014 and
2015 repectively.

I would be interested cause I like the blood and guts and seeing how people
would react when there put in a tricky situation

Young, Moira. Blood red road. 1st ed. New York: Margaret K. McElderry Books,
c2011.
In a distant future, eighteen-year-old Lugh is kidnapped, and while his twin
sister Saba and nine-year-old Emmi are trailing him across bleak Sandsea
they are captured, too, and taken to brutal Hopetown, where Saba is forced

Saba has spent her whole life in Silverlake, a dried-up wasteland ravaged by constant
sandstorms. The Wrecker civilization has long been destroyed, leaving only landfills for Saba
and her family to scavenge from. That's fine by her, as long as her beloved twin brother Lugh
is around. But when four cloaked horsemen capture Lugh, Saba's world is shattered, and
she embarks on a quest to get him back.

fierce fighter, an unbeatable survivor, and a cunning opponent. Teamed up with a handsome
daredevil named Jack and a gang of girl revolutionaries called the Free Hawks, Sabas

unrelenting search for Lugh stages a showdown that will change the course of her own
civilization.
Blood Red Road has a searing pace, a poetic writing style, and an epic love storymaking
Moira Young is one of the most exciting new voices in teen fiction.

This would interest me because I like the suspense

3. Legend
Fic
Lu

Lu, Marie, 1984-. Legend. New York, N.Y. : Speak, an imprint of Penguin Group
(USA) Inc., 2013.
In a dark future, when North America has split into two warring nations,
fifteen-year-olds Day, a famous criminal, and prodigy June, the brilliant soldier
hired to capture him, discover that they have a common enemy.

Day, the Republic's fifteen-year-old most wanted criminal, breaks into Los Angeles Central
Hospital in hopes of stealing a cure for the plague that threatens his family. While escaping
the hospital, Day loses the pendant his father gave him, and wounds Metias Iparis to aid in
his escape.
June, a fifteen-year-old prodigy, is chosen to find and capture Day, who is charged with the
murder of Metias Iparis (June's older brother), amongst other crimes against the country.
Though born into an elite family in one of the wealthiest districts in the Republic, June poses
as a girl from the slums in order to search for Day, coincidentally collecting Day's fallen
pendant as she observes the crime scene. When attempting to lure Day by pretending to be
a merchant with a plague cure that doesn't work, June decided to look for Day herself. . .

Parents need to know that this slick dystopian thriller has echoes of The Hunger
Games and Orwell's 1984 but focuses more on star-crossed infatuation than the
excesses of the totalitarian state.

4. Wither

DeStefano, Lauren. Wither. 1st ed. New York : Simon & Schuster BFYR, c2011.
After modern science turns every human into a genetic time bomb with men
dying at age twenty-five and women dying at age twenty, girls are kidnapped
and married off in order to repopulate the world.

Wither is a 2011 young-adult dystopian novel written by Lauren DeStefano. It was originally
published on March 22, 2011, by Simon & Schuster Children's Publishing. It is set in a future
where scientists succeeded in engineering a perfect generation of humans, free of illness

and disorders, but as a consequence, also created a virus that plagues that generation's
children and their children's children, killing females at age 20 and males at age 25. The
fallout from this disaster drastically set apart the poor, who scavenge for food in a society
that has few to no workers, from the rich, who celebrate each new building built as the
continuance of the human race. It is the first book of The Chemical Garden Trilogy. The
second book, Fever, was released in February 2012,.[1] The third and final book, Sever, was
released in February 2013
By age sixteen, Rhine Ellery has four years left to live. A botched effort to create a perfect
race has left all males born with a lifespan of 25 years, and females a lifespan of 20 years-leaving the world in a state of panic. Geneticists seek a miracle antidote to restore the
human race, desperate orphans crowd the population, crime and poverty have skyrocketed,
and young girls are being kidnapped and sold as polygamous brides to bear more children.
When Rhine is sold as a bride, she vows to do all she can to escape. Yet her husband,
Linden, is hopelessly in love with her, and Rhine cant bring herself to hate him as much as
shed like to. He opens her to a magical world of wealth and illusion she never thought
existed, and it almost makes it possible to ignore the clock ticking away her short life. But
Rhine quickly learns that not everything in her new husbands strange world is what it seems.
Her father-in-law, an eccentric doctor bent on finding the antidote, is hoarding corpses in the
basement; her fellow sister wives are to be trusted one day and feared the next; and Rhine
has no way to communicate to her twin brother that she is safe and alive.
Together with one of Linden's servants, Gabriel, Rhine attempts to escape just before her
seventeenth birthday. But in a world that continues to spiral into anarchy, is there any hope
for freedom?
