I believe this series is teen fiction - so I'm a bit embarrassed that I just went on and on about them to one of my attorneys.  But then again, I'm not.  Getting someone to cry within the first 25 pages of your book is darn good writing.  And the world of The Hunger Games is some kind of a Futuristic-Nazi-Roman Empire.  It's wild.  And I'm genuinely hooked. And this morning when I got caught just standing reading at the front door to the office, I felt I had to explain myself.
