I figure Jon will try to avoid answering the question at all costs. It really doesn't matter which book you pick if all you are teaching is dissecting the text and analyse the meaning between the lines. But I can tell you that a couple years back in my highschool (not me, the highschool in my town

) they been reading fist book of
Hunger Games. The students mostly liked it, but, of course, I have no idea what all was involved. It is quite possible that all they did was read it, watch the movie, and discuss differences between book and movie.
