Some days, I love working in kidlit.

Basically all anyone in the office was talking about today was how to snag an ARC of Catching Fire, the sequel to The Hunger GamesAll the conversation was about when it would be available at BEA, and if it was ticketed, and who everyone knew who could get them a copy, and who was next to read it after that person. Whispered conversations all over

Did you manage to carve out some time on Sunday? I hope you're recovered enough from blintz warfare that you can make it and snag some swag.

omg, I burn with envy! My oldest just read "The Hunger Games" - we read the first few chapters aloud at bedtime and then he wanted to read ahead - he stayed up until 9AM reading it, then after 6 hours of sleep, spent the next day reading it in bed until he finished. Heh, it reminded me of me ;-)

Isn't it great? I love it when people get excited about books. And I love that I have multiple sources for CATCHING FIRE :)

I found The Hunger Games a couple of days ago and bought it because of this entry. Now that I finished it, I came looking for this entry again so I can say OMGWANT to the next book.
