I think it's like "The Running Man" for the Twilight crowd.

Have you read the entire series?
I think the first one will be easy to adapt to a movie, but the second and especially third aren't quite in the same vein as the first one and I will be curious how they adapt them to film. Also, Woody Harrelson as Haymitch just seems weird to me, idk. |

Interesting, why do you think the first will be the most boring? Seems to me it has the most action and a good chunk of the character development? The first one was also my favorite of the series so I may be a bit bias in that regard.

This is supposedly a teenage girl version of Battle Royale.

My 12 year old wants this for her birthday.....anybody read it and feel it's remotely appropriate for a 12 year old (albeit a fairly mature one)? The premise just seems very adult to me.

It's much more tame than the premise might suggest. No issues with sex or language that I can remember at all. Obviously, there's some violence, but it didn't seem particularly graphic or scary to me. I wouldn't have had a problem with my girls reading it when they were 12. I suspect that there are far worse books in their middle school library or the young adult fiction section of the local library.
