It is only fourteen more days until the release of Mockingjay.  Are you ready?  For those of you who somewho have missed out, Mockingjay is the third (and final?) book in Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games trilogy.  In these books, twenty four teens are chosen each year to compete in the Hunger Games, where they must fight to the death.  The winner is the last one left living.  I can’t wait to find out what happens to Katniss, Peeta, Gale and the others. 

Meanwhile, you can vote for your favorite YA charaters from fantasy and science fiction in the YA Fantasy Showdown.  You heard right.  It is going down with the biggest, baddest characters from YA Fantasy, and you get to pick the winners.  Can Katniss Everdeen take on Tally Youngblood?  What will happen if Edward Cullen faces Hermione Granger?  Head on over before August 10, when the epic battles begin.  Also head over to creator Heather Zundel’s blog for more details and great ideas for your very own release party. 

What are you going to do to celebrate the coming of Mockingjay?
