Follow Friday (15)

Follow Friday is hosted By Parajunkee.com and Alisoncanread.com

This week question is: 
If you could have dinner with your favorite book character, who would you eat with and what would you serve?
Tod Hudson from Soul Screamers!
He'd bring the pizza, we'd watch a silly movie. 
And maybe I'll have some apricot jam around, you know, to keep things interesting ^__~

In other news, while I was lurking around blog and news sites I stumbled upon a post that showed The Hunger Games movie posters. 8 simplistic but gorgeous posters of the most important characters. And then, I hit jackpot when I found...

Waiting on Wednesday (16)

Waiting on Wednesday is the weekly event, hosted at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

I am eagerly waiting for...
Insurgent
Release Date: May 28 2012

One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love.

Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.
