Suggetions for Young Adult Readers

Suzanne Collins second book in her post-apocolyptic, fantasy series was just released yesterday. The second in the "Hunger Games" series is called Catching Fire. This series is sure to be a hit with young adults and adults alike. In Hunger Games, 24 children are selected to compete to the death before a live audience. At the end of this first in the series, two competitors remain and this is where yesterday's release, Catching Fire, picks up. Collins is about two-thirds done with the third and final book in the trilogy. It remains to be seen if this series will attain the popularity of Stephanie Meyer's "Twilight" series but it seems to be a good bet as foreign translations and movie rights are in the works.
