Finished (E-Reader) - "Mockingbird" - Suzanne Collins

"Mockingbird" finished the "Hunger Games" trilogy - a very nice series of books, fast read.  Central character is a younger teenage girl in post-apocalyptic U.S. (seems like).  The Hunger Games are a Survivor-type game, but the characters actually die - only one survivor is permitted.  Each region has two champions chosen at random, one male, one female, with the exception of the Capital region, which runs the games, and uses the annual event as a reminder of their win of the civil war.

The trilogy goes over several years, from the Games selection and completion in book 1, the follow-up games in book 2 and the post-2nd-games period in book 3.
