The Mockingjay: COMING SOON

AH! :)
I'm so excited! I mean I'm litteraly bouncing in my seat right now! Why? Because the coolest series ever known to man has another book coming out this Tuesday! Get ready for a new addition to THE HUNGER GAMES!


(Crowd cheers)


Ok. Ok. Quiet down now. No need to get all frantic and stuff. There's only one day left and three hours from the time I'm posting this blog. Whew. Okay, now time for the informational crap on the book that I'm supposed to write; being a reviewer and all.

Anywho:
HERE'S THE BOOK COVER FOR SUZANNE COLLINS NEW BOOK, "MOCKINGJAY"



The covers always give you hints as to what might be going on in her books. Can you figure it out? I think I know. If you ask nicely I might tell you . . .
Now considering that the book isn't out; I can't really tell you what I personally think about it. But I can give you the summary.

THE BEST SUMMARY EVER:
"Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has suvived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she's made it out of the bloody arena alive, she's still not safe. The Captiol is angry. The Capitiol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay for the unrest? Katniss. And what's worse, President Snow has made it clear that no one else is safe either. Not Katniss' family, not her friends, not the people of District 12. Powerful and haunting, this installment of Suzanne Collins groundbreaking the Hunger Games trilogy promises to be one of the most talked about books of the year."

Did you catch that last section there? It promises to be one of the most talked about books of the year! So are you gonna be a looser and not read one of the most talked about books of the year!? I shall think not. Everyone and their mother is going to be reading this. Heck! Everyone and their GRANDMOTHER will read this. So don't be a goey chocolate chip cookie and buy this book!

Also! This is tottaly off topic but; I DON'T WANNT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL! Sigh. I wish I could make summer last longer. What say you?

Also! The Hunger Games movie baby! 2011.

Well that's all for now folks.
But REMEMBER: I love anyone who even bothers to read my blog. <3

Percy Jackson and the Olypians: The Lightning Thief

Percy Jackson and the Olympians is a very amazing series in itself. I wish I could just sit around and gossip to you about how totally awesome all the books are but then I'd be sewed for causing people to have a brain malfunction. So I decided that it would probably be easier and less traumatic for you guys if I took it one book at a time.
So, naturally, we're going to start with the first one. Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. (Man that's a mouthful!)

In the Lightning Thief Percy Jackson, age 12, is just any regular juvenile delinquent. He's been kicked out of every school and has never attended the same one for two years in a row. Percy suffers from dyslexia and ADHD. Suddenly everything changes when Percy's class takes a trip to a museum.


Percy then is brought to Camp Half - Blood and is faced with the truth. He's a demigod.
Now just imagine it. You were brought to a place that you've never knew existed with people you don't know. Who can you trust? Not only that but you've been told that Greek gods are real. And that you're father is one of them.
Now if that were me I would have gone in my pants and then fainted.
Just between you and me.


Then Percy is accused of stealing from the lord of the Gods, Zeus. All in a weeks time. That has to be some sort of demigod record. He should go in the Olimpics. Ha- ha! Whew, sorry, I couldn't resist.

Anywho, Percy barks on an adventure to save the world. With the help of his trusty friends Grover and Annabeth. Also kind of a tiny spoiler for people who want to read the books and haven't yet seen the movie. Annabeth and Percy become love intrest somewhere along the series. But I'm sure that was pretty obvious.
It wasn't? Really? Um, uh, okay. Sorry?


Ahem . . .

In other words! Here's the
trailor!









Awesome, right? Okay. So one of my fellow blogging friends, The Silver Screen Addict, reviewed this movie. So if you're at least wondering if this is a good movie then check out his review.

Also! Rick Roirdan (The amazing author of said book) is working on another series. It's going to be c.alled "The Lost Hero" It features new demigods and has a different narriator but it still has our beloved characters from Percy Jackson. Speaking of Percy Jackson, he's the so called, lost hero. And Annabeth is going crazy looking for him, but she needs the help of some new friends. You can go online and read the first two chapters but WARNING: There's a stupid cliffhanger at the end. Anyway, check it out.

REMEMBER: I love anyone who even bothers to read my blogs! <3
