When You Forget Where You Are

Things can get pretty intense.

After seeing the movie "The Hunger Games" on a double date with my fiancee Garett (hehe) and my parents, I realized I MUST read the books ASAP. 
Not gonna lie, I was nervous to see the movie....kids killing each other...hmmm....tempting....
(You know you are cool (and old) when you are down for double dating with your rents. Honestly I kinda loved it! If we lived down in Centerville I think we would go on double dates with them more often.)

And so I downed the first book in 2 days.
 (surprisingly, since I am the slowest reader in the world, guess work has fixed that problem for me)

And now I am onto the 2nd one.
But I forgot how addicting they are...

So I kept saying "I will stop after this chapter" 
(5 chapters later...hey that's impressively short right?)

But the thing is, every chapter ending is a cliffhanger, and not one kind that can be ignored.
These cliffhangers are more like, when you remember to put down the book you are gasping for air, and your heart is racing, until you remember the story is NOT real.

But I guess that is how you know it is a good book. 
When you have to remember the difference between book and reality.

Anyway, go read um, if you have read um, read um again.
I am off to bed, though this book on floor next to my bed is quietly calling my name.
9 hours.
9 hours and I will pick up "Catching Fire" and return to District 12 and freak out and panic with the rest of the people. 
Oh morning, please hurry!

Sweet Dreams world!

Be nice to phone research people,
they hate their job more than you do
I promise!
