Read This - The Roar by Emma Clayton

If you liked the Hunger Games or Ender's Game you may enjoy The Roar by Emma Clayton.  In this futuristic novel an animal plague has forced humanity to move to the cities and live behind tall walls.  It has been 43 years since the plague and conditions are crowded and glum behind the wall.  Mika refuses to believe his twin sister has drowned despite what everyone is telling him.  He knows she's still alive and he is determined to find her.  Now the office of Youth Development is making the kids drink fit mix and pod fighting is the new hot game at the arcade.  Is the government really interested in making kids healthier or is something more sinister going on?  This suspenseful novel starts off with a daring escape in a stolen pod fighter and the action keeps you on the edge of your seat until the last page.
