The Hunger Games

I know why this book bothers me.
It's because I can see it as a possible future.
The Hunger Games in the plot could be the extension of our "reality" television shows.
With the increasing divide between those that have and those that don't, I can see fighting to the death to provide food for your family becoming a program for the amusement for the "haves".
And that thought is frightening...
I'm not sure that, even if I finish the first book of this series, I can even read the other two.
The premise bothers me that much.
Maybe I should stick with zombies and werewolves and ghosts...
