Highlights:

Once I'm on my feet, I realize escape might not be so simple.

Panic begins to set in. I can't stay here.

Flight is essential. But I can't let my fear show.

Winning means fame and fortune.

Losing means certain death.

The Hunger Games have begun.....

Also participating from District 12 is Peeta Mellark, a boy who developed a secret lifelong crush on Katniss the moment he laid eyes on her as a child. They are mentored by District 12's only living victor, Haymitch Abernathy, who won the Games 24 years earlier and has since assumed a solitary life of alcoholism.

I "succumbed" to temptation and bought all three books in Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games trilogy after watching the movie, The Hunger Games. :D
