Review- Catching Fire
Happy Friday, peeps!
Song of the day- If You Only Knew by Shinedown
With the continuing hype over MockingJay, I thought I'd post my review for Catching Fire.
Goodreads summary:
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games with fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark. But it was a victory won by defiance of the Capitol and their harsh rules. Katniss and Peeta should be happy. After all, they have just won for themselves and their families a life of safety and plenty. But there ...

How often do you write?
Happy Thursday, peeps!

I write in bursts. When I get an idea for a story, I usually flush out the characters, write three or four chapters, and then let the manuscript sit. Why? I don't know. For some reason, letting the story sit and marinate some more ...

Review- Hunger Games
Happy Saturday, peeps!
Song of the day- Edge Of The Ocean by Ivy
I've heard nothing but talk and excitement over the past few weeks about Mockingjay, the third installment to the Hunger Games series. I'd yet to read the first book, and felt way out of the loop. My hubby, the good man that he is, hauled his butt to the store and bought me the first two books so I could catch up and see what all the hype was about. All I can say is: I am sooooo on board with the Hunger Games hysteria. These boo...
