So I found this video today and it differs slightly from another Catching Fire book trailer video I have seen on youtube.  SO… I thought I would post it here for you all!

As of now, the contest only has two entries!  TWO!  If I don’t get more entries, I just don’t know how I can justify buying more merch to give away in future contest.  So please, summit more entries!

Also, I should be posting something tomarrow for Toss Up Tuesday… not sure what, but I’ll think of something!  Meanwhile, my son is getting caught up in the world of the Hunger Games!  lol, jk but how cute is that?

Borders filmed a one-hour Borders Book Club discussion with Collins, three adults (including a librarian) and six teenagers. On release day, the

talk will go up on Borders’ Web site and play in the 90 (out of 513) Borders stores with TVs. Borders has filmed such discussions with just three other YA authors: Stephenie Meyer for Eclipse, Sarah Dessen for Along for the Ride and Christopher Paolini for Brisingr. With Scholastic’s permission, Borders also created a mockingjay pin, which it plans to sell for 50% off its $6.99 retail price with the purchase of Catching Fire. Finally, on September 1, Borders will highlight Catching Fire in its weekly email blast to all 34 million Borders customer loyalty program members. “The storyline to this is just so catching,” said Liz Marotte, Borders’ YA buyer. “Forty-year-old men can enjoy it as much as 16-year-old girls.”    Read more here.

There are few series that are so compelling from the first novel that they leave a reader distractedly thinking about the future of the characters.

MTV’s Hollywood Crush gives us an article about The Hunger Games and it’s Sequel “Catching Fire.

“It seems rather silly to add my two cents of praise to a book that’s been 1) acclaimed by Stephenie Meyer and Stephen King, not to mention a whole lot of other book reviewers; 2) snatched up by Lionsgate to be made into a movie, written by its very author; and 3) sitting in the New York Times best-seller list for 48 weeks. I’ll just say that if you haven’t yet read Suzanne Collins’ “Hunger Games,” then I’m kind of jealous of you. You get to discover the dark, post-apocalyptic world of Katniss Everdeen and then jump right into “Catching Fire,” the second book in the trilogy, as soon as it comes out on September 1.”
