Hunger Games Book Discussion Series for Teens at Tolland Public Library

From the Town of Tolland:

This February and March, Tolland Public Library is offering a new book discussion series for teens on Suzanne Collin’s Hunger Games trilogy.

Set in the not-too-distant future in a land that used to be North America, the three books follow Katniss Everdeen as she tries to balance survival and leadership in the brutal Hunger Games, a tourney style battle to the death, where only one contestant can win.
