Hunger Games! *squeee* It is SO GOOD.

Tif says that I need to pack as many handkerchiefs as I do when reading Mira Grant, and I believe her. Also that while I am likely to be able to wait between book 1 and book 2, I am not likely to be able to wait AT ALL to read Mockingjay.

(I sort of want a pet mockingjay now. The cover art also reminds me of RSS feeds, which makes me think of them as feed-reader birds, and since I know they're black and white, that makes me think of my childhood black and white hens, who were just lovely birds, and having a bird with the intellect of a fay-hen or better, who can remember tunes and sing them... I want. Especially if they like to snuggle.)

There are few books that I actually purchase copies of for myself these days. but when I asked aardy to pick up some Mockingjays via Amazon, and they were all on sale for half off, I bought the entire set in hardcover.

And yes, it's an emotional roller-coaster in some places. *nods*

For a moment there I read that like they were selling actual mockingjay birds on Amazon, and I had a serious double-take.

It's a good series. I like it. I especially like that the love-triangle stuff is not just incidental-adding-to-the-argh, it's actually plot-relevant, and the plot is not a romance plot.
