About The Hunger Pains: A Parody

Product Description The hilarious instant New York Times bestseller, The Hunger Pains is a loving parody of the dystopian YA novel and film, The Hunger Games. Winning means wealth, fame, and a life of therapy losing means death, but also fame! This is The Hunger Pains. When Kantkiss Neverclean replaces her sister as a contestant on the Hunger Games—the second-highest-rated reality TV show in Peaceland, behind Extreme Home Makeover—she has no idea what to expect. Having lived her entire life in the telemarketing district’s worst neighborhood, the Crack, Kantkiss feels unprepared to fight to the death while simultaneously winking and looking adorable for the cameras. But when her survival rests on choosing between the dreamy hunk from home, Carol Handsomestein, or the doughy klutz, Pita Malarkey, Kantkiss discovers that the toughest conflicts may not be found on the battlefield but in her own heart . . . which is unfortunately on a battlefield. Review " The Hunger Pains really struck a chord with me." —Kantkiss, protagonist of The Hunger Pains "Instead of the Bible, rooms should come with a copy of The Hunger Pains."  —Sheraton Hotel Memo "This book makes me wish I'd never been shot."  —Abraham Lincoln "The book always falls through my hands, but in an undeniably funny way." —A Ghost About the Author The Harvard Lampoon debuted in February 1876 and is the world’s longest continually published humor magazine.
