I have 2 books.

Book: The Hunger Games
Author: Suzanne Collins
Genre: Science fiction/ Adventure
Review:
There is a country in a future world called Panem, and it is located
where North America used to be. There are 12 Districts in Panem, and
they are all ruled by a harsh government; the Capitol. 74 years prior to
the beginning of the book, Panem rebelled against the Capitol. There
was a 13th District, but it was obliterated as an example to the other
citizens of Panem; no one can defeat the Capitol. So, there is an annual
televised event called the Hunger Games, where one girl and one boy
from every district are chosen to be put into an outdoor arena and fight
to the death. Whoever is the final one alive receives fame, fortune,
and their district gets privileges rained upon them for the next year.

Book: Avalon: Web of Magic
Author: Rachel Roberts
Genre: fantasy novels/ adventure
Review:
Emily Fletcher, Adriane Charday, and Kara Davies, three very different girls-turned-mages (mages are "magic users"), band together to protect and find Avalon, the source of all magic. Each girl has a bonded animal and magic stone; their animal friends help them on their magical journeys through the different worlds along the Magic Web. The safety of the Magic Web, and the worlds it connects, hinges on their success as they battle two main antagonists, the Dark Sorceress and the Spider Witch, who wish to harness the magic of Avalon and distort the Web for their own evil ends. The titular Web of Magic is a web on the magical plane of existence, connecting all worlds with each other through portals.
