Does Racebending Count: Battle Royale & The Hunger Games

I was reading a post recently – maybe a few weeks ago or so – that brought up one the movies and book series that has literally haunted my heart and soul ever since I heard of it:

Battle Royale by Koushun Takami

Amanda is the one that brought it up – and I found her post so here it is for you to check out – and I was like “OMG yesssss I couldn’t even finish this movie because it was so hard for me to watch.” And I remember seeing both of the books at one of my libraries growing up and I never picked it up because I was just not prepared to read about kids having to kill each other for sport.

Okay I totally came up with another new tag because I haven’t seen anyone make one for this – but if you have, link me please because I totally need to see this book loved more. This one is inspired by the novel We Set the Dark on Fire by Tehlor Kay Mejia and if you haven’t read it yet, YOU NEED TO READ IT LIKE ASAP.

So let’s get to some rules, shall we?

Rules:

Spread. The. Love
