The second book in the Hunger Games series certainly did not disappoint.

The Hunger Games: Book One
I LOVED these books! I was entranced by them like I was by Harry Potter. When I read them, my heart broke for the decisions Katniss was forced to make in order to keep her family safe, my pulse raced for the danger Katniss and Peeta were constantly in, and my brain hurt that Capitol was allowed to inflict such cruelty on the districts. How could our world deteriorate to such brutality while in such a comfortable place as the Capitol? I was amazed at how quickly I read them; the suspense made me never want to stop reading. I want to be able to discuss these books with you to see what you were thinking and feeling while you were reading. (I know I was thinking and feeling a LOT!) Since we can’t talk in person, I am going to pose some questions to you on the blog over the next few weeks. You aren’t being graded on your answers, so don’t worry. Every answer is right as long as you support your opinions with explanations. J You may not want to read these posts and comments if you have not read the books yet. There will be spoilers! Read the books then make comments when you are finished! Believe me, you will like these books!

Merry Christmas!
It was so wonderful to see you on that unexpected visit the other day! I am so glad I was able to stop in for even a few minutes. When we skyped, I told you about my visit to the National Christmas Tree. I had planned on blogging that adventure while I was at the airport waiting to fly home. Unfortunately, a hinge on my laptop broke, preventing me from travelling with it this break. So although it is after Christmas Day, Father Umberg will tell you that the Christmas season is not over yet.
