Thursday Text: The Hunger Games

I did finish The Hobbit, and I enjoyed it. Then everyone was talking about The Hunger Games. A girl from church gave me her copy to read, so I did. I'm not sure what I think of it. It was interesting, and I liked the characters. But the whole premise of the book seemed not quite right. I was actually a little concerned that children would read this book... Have you read it? What do you think?
