After the worldwide phenomenon of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games trilogy, the first book in the series has finally made its big screen debut. In a bleak future, the United States has been reduced to a dictatorship with 12 districts. Every year, in order to prevent uprisings, the ruling Capitol forces one boy and one girl from each district to fight each other to the death in a nationally televised arena --- and only one will survive.
To celebrate this much-anticipated release, the publisher Scholastic has made four movie tie-in books available for those of you who just can't get enough of Katniss Everdeen and the annual games: THE WORLD OF THE HUNGER GAMES, THE HUNGER GAMES: MOVIE TIE-IN EDITION, THE OFFICIAL ILLUSTRATED MOVIE COMPANION and THE HUNGER GAMES TRIBUTE GUIDE.
On the small screen, "Pretty Little Liars" has wrapped up its second season on ABC Family, but you won't need to wait too much longer for new episodes: the third season gets underway on June 5th!
