As promised, we have a SuperFantasticGiveaway of Catching Fire. Thea liked The Hunger Games (book 1) and absolutely loved Catching Fire, so we highly recommend you get in on this fabulous trilogy by Suzanne Collins. Read on for more on Catching Fire, prizes, and how to enter your name for the giveaway! First, some background information on the book.
CATCHING FIRE
Sparks Will Fly 09.01.09
(The second book in The Hunger Games series)
The Summary:
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has won the annual Hunger Games. She and fellow district tribute Peeta Mellark are miraculously still alive. Katniss should be relieved, happy even. After all, she has returned to her family and her longtime friend, Gale. Yet nothing is the way Katniss wishes it to be. Gale holds her at an icy distance. Peeta has turned his back on her completely. And there are whispers of a rebellion against the Capitol — a rebellion that Katniss and Peeta may have helped create.
Much to her shock, Katniss has fueled an unrest she’s afraid she cannot stop. And what scares her more is that she’s not entirely convinced she should try. As time draws near for Katniss and Peeta to visit the districts on the Capitol’s cruel Victory Tour, the stakes are higher than ever. If they can’t prove, without a shadow of a doubt, that they are lost in their love for each other, the consequences will be horrifying.

I am definitely Team Gale. Although, I really am starting to like Peeta a lot more after Catching Fire. Great Contest!
Super Giveaway, I’d love to be entered!
Thanks for a great giveaway=)
I love Peeta so that would make me Team Peeta! Except I don’t want to create too much of a division in the fan base, so I normally don’t go around saying that I am Team Peeta XD
Anyway, lilnida101(at)yahoo(dot)com

Dude, I love this series! It’s definitely one of my favorites of all time, man. It would blow my mind if I won win this thing… I’d be so happy I’d kiss someone!
I’m inclined to say Team Peeta, but I’m rooting for Gale in my heart…. I’m as confused as Katniss!!!
