I know in my heart that Wednesday at work next week will be difficult for me, because I fully intend to stay up and read it 'til the bitter end. I hate Suzanne Collins. I think she did that on purpose!Anna Bankshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04216213561070725760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-47134785241180058952010-08-20T10:01:02.983-05:002010-08-20T10:01:02.983-05:00Like a fool, I ordered mine through Amazon so I wo...Like a fool, I ordered mine through Amazon so I would be able to add it to my "free shipping" list with another book I wanted to buy. (I'm so cheap/poor). I know I'll be just itching to walk over to B&N at midnight and pick one up, but the trouble is, it comes out on Tuesday. Realistically I won't be able to start reading it until Friday night anyway. I mean I could read it at work like I do everything else, but I won't want to stop reading. Then when someone interupts me with business, I'll tell them off and get fired. Then talk about being poor. No I'm just going to wait until Friday and read through the night.Melissa Gillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02700191547004665402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-91467120019419539542010-08-19T22:48:14.495-05:002010-08-19T22:48:14.495-05:00Speaking of Hunger Games!

I was thinking about looking into his Richard Bachman books (since I just read that article about author pseudonyms and not really for any other reason) Since I LOVED Hunger Games and I thought THE SHINING was brilliant, should I read this next?Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04765818961868868617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7350907041425747857.post-86040940316813710232010-08-19T17:37:07.973-05:002010-08-19T17:37:07.973-05:00I haven't read either.
