By far one of the best books that I have read in a long time. I love the questions that this book raises about humanity and survival, as well as authority. Not only is it impossible to put down, it keeps you thinking for long after you have finished reading it.
Recommended by Dawn
This book will rock your socks off, everyone needs to read it.
Recommended by Amanda
With a fearless heroine and an intense storyline putting this thought-provoking book down will be near impossible. Each page is packed with suspense propelling you to the end, you’ll find yourself wanting more when you’re through.
Recommended by Sonia
The future of the United States has been transformed into a world called Panem-a place divided into 12 districts & a capitol. Each year they hold annual Hunger Games in which a boy and girl from each district are forced to compete. In a televised arena each will fight to the death till one remains. When her younger sister is chosen, 16-year-old Katniss volunteers to take her spot knowing it’s a potential death sentence. This is a great read, and keeps you wanting more at the end of each chapter.
Recommended by Jen
Set in an America of the future, the Hunger Games is a strange hybrid of reality tv, cutthroat lifestyles, and the classic good vs. evil drama. I literally could NOT put this book down! One of my favorite books of all time!

In poetry of great scope and precise detail, Robinson Jeffers discovered the divinity of nature as it is understood by modern science. Jeffers documented his discoveries in thrilling and violent “verse novels,” set in California’s coastal mountains, and meditative lyric poems that express an environmental secular faith that is still relevant today.
Occidental College is celebrating the work of Robinson Jeffers in the month of October as a part of the NEA’s The Big Read. For more Big Read events with Occidental check out http://www.oxy.edu/x8952.xml.
