August 18th

"The world will be watching." - and so will I !!!  I can't wait for August 18th!  That's when The Hunger Games comes out on DVD and Blu-Ray.  I am pre-ordering my copy so I can get it early.  Don't laugh...a lot of online retailers send out the copies early so you can receive them on the actual release date (if not, very close to).  Even my teenage son is anxious to see it again (maybe he likes Katniss?  lol...I'm gonna have to tease him about that).  Anyway, you all ought to pre-order your copy today, too!!!  Go to Amazon.com now!!!

The Hunger Games book

Last night, I finished reading Suzanne Collins's 1st book of The Hunger Games trilogy. This first book, The Hunger Games, was released in September 2008, followed the next year by Catching Fire (The Second Book of the Hunger Games), and later, of course, by Mockingjay (The Hunger Games, Book 3). These were best-sellers in the Young Adult (ages 12 to adult) fiction category...the same category as other best-sellers like The Twilight Saga and The Vampire Diaries , which have also been dramatized on-screen.
