34. The Compound

By Aisling Rawle (304 pp, ebook)

The book is vague about the details but the real world is in a grim state. The story is about a shallow but beautiful young woman who is competing in a reality show in a fancy compound. The competitors have group challenges to win things for the house such as food and basic necessities. The individual competitors also have challenges to win things they need or luxury items. Also: every night the competitors need to be paired up with someone or they are kicked out. I found it riveting. The TV show has a whiff of Hunger Games about it -- they will let the partipants go far to win. Recommend.
