I was ill from school today and got the first book, with much begging from Dee...and I do myself think the book is really well written and now I want to carry on with the series. I agree with you saying it's a rip off of 'Battle Royale' however it's a teenage version and more original. I literally just read it today, I would definitely read it, it's gory and the plot minus the teenage falling in love drama is really good.
