Read: Suzanne Collins - The Hunger Games

Good book, although not likely to be a re-read. The plot, in which a girl fights for her life in a gladiator-style televised ritualistic competition, reminded me of Orson Scott Card's "Ender". In fact, I wish Orson Scott Card had written it - Suzanne Collins' book felt a bit sparse somehow - in the atmosphere or characterization? I think there was a bigger, epic tale in this fairly short young adult novel. But I look forward to the sequels - it's the first in a trilogy. Maybe all three of them will add up to the story I want it to be.
