So everyone is asking me if I've read this new book Mockingjay yet. My friend Geoffrey even forwarded me this photo from a midnight release party:



Those are red velvet cupcakes! My favorite! And so, about this book...I can't say I've read it, but apparently it's the final book of a series. The books take place in a dystopian future where schoolchildren are forced to battle until there is one survivor, and one year the survivor manages not only to win the game but goes on foment rebellion against the oppressive system...hmm.

You know something?

I think I have read that book already!

Oh yeah, that does ring a bell.

I'm sure this series is great fun and I hope everyone enjoys the final installments. The books certainly have something going on to rate midnight release parties and awesome cupcakes too. I hope people weren't too pushy to get the books though—a crowded bookstore event can turn into a real battle royale!

Heheh.
