The Hunger Games and Graceling

If you haven't read The Hunger Games yet, stop whatever you are doing and go get a copy of it! 

The Hunger Games is an annual death match in the post-apocalyptic world Panem.  The overruling Capitol seeks to prove their power when they choose one boy and one girl from each of the 12 districts to compete against each other in a death match.  Each book in this trilogy is action packed and you'll easily get hooked to the characters.  Better yet don't just get the first book, get them all!  (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Mockingjay)

If you have already read The Hunger Games try out Graceling. I recently started reading Graceling and it immediately reminded me of Hunger Games.  Both have strong female characters at the center of their stories.   I have yet to finish it but it's been great so far.
