Hungar Games by Suzanne Collins

Although there is almost no profanity in this book, this is going to be the harshest book on my website. Suzanne Collins is such a great writer, she draws you into the story from the first paragraph. The landscape she creates for the ruins of "North America" is bleak and the cruel games that are played in which children are pitted against one another to fight to the death were just a bit too violent for me. I was compelled to read to the end to find out what happened to Katniss, but the violent nature of the subject matter was just too much for me. I chose not to read the other 2 books in the series.

Rating PG-13
Sex-There is a bit of romantic stirrings in the young characters but no blatant sex
Violence-There is a lot of violence, killing and fighting
Profanity-H-ll 3, the word kill is used 73 times

You Might as Well Laugh About it Now by Marie Osmond

Marie Osmond recounts the highs and lows of her career and personal life in this touching and often funny memoir.  From the outside I think the world might think she has had the perfect life, but she is candid about the struggles she has had.  Her mother taught her to look at those tough times and step back and find the humor.  You know you are going to laugh about them later, so why not laugh about it now.  I have tried to live my own life that way so I loved her attitude as I read this book.  This is definitely a great read if you need a pick-me-up or you just enjoy biography-type reads.  Squeaky Clean Read!
