I’m just so flippin’ excited that a date has been announced for the second book, that I have to post it. If you haven’t read “The Hunger Games,” you need too. It’s a great quick read that will leave your head spinning.

Here’s the Amazon 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 are rumors of rebellion among the subjects, and Katniss and Peeta, to their horror, are the faces of that rebellion. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.

“Catching Fire” will be released September 1st and can be pre-ordered on Amazon.
