THINGS

First:
The Hunger Games official movie trailer.
I wanted to do a post on it yesterday,
but I couldn't.
I couldn't.
It was
mind-blowing.
Beyond
astonishing.
Beyond perfection.
It's just so
unbelievable
that all these characters I've only
dreamed
of, I've only
imagined,
are
alive.
For once, I am speechless.

Second:

I'm going to be participating in the 2012 Debut Authors challenge hosted by Kristi of The Story Siren (!!!LOVETHATBLOG!!!)! The objective of this challenge is to read & review a minimum of twelve young adult or middle grade debut novels between the dates of January 1, 2012 - January 31, 2013! :) I'm excited--there are so many awesome debut books releasing next year!
