If you forced me to say that I could only choose one book that I loved in August it really would be easy. While I read quite a few books I really liked, The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins really stands out. Thankfully I only had a short wait for the release of the follow up book, Catching Fire!
Release day is here, and to celebrate, I am very excited to be hosting a fantastic Catching Fire giveaway. Three lucky winners will win a limited edition Catching Fire pack thanks to the good people at Big Honcho Media.
First a little about the book:
Having just passed the ultimate test of survival—the Hunger Games—sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark defied the Capitol and their harsh rules. But even as both won their families a life of safety, now the Capitol wants revenge. Despite her feelings for Gale Hawthorne, Katniss must showcase her love for Peeta on a cruel Victory Tour, and the stakes are higher than ever. Rumors of unrest are spreading quickly, and to Katniss and Peeta’s shock, they’ve become the face of a dangerous rebellion. But how will they be able to take on the Capitol and protect their families? In Catching Fire, the second installment of the Hunger Games, only one thing is certain: sparks will fly!
So, what and how do you win?
The prize pack includes
- limited edition promotional T-shirt
- collectible mocking jay pin
- copy of Catching Fire
The Catching Fire book promotion is open to participants with a United States mailing address only (international readers can enter if you have a friend in the States who can accept your prizes by mail!). Entrants under age 13 must have parent or guardian permission to enter. The Catching Fire book promotion runs from September 1 to September 15, 2009. Winners will be announced on September 16, 2009.
It's easy to enter. Simply leave a comment on this post that includes an email address where you can be contacted if you are one of the lucky winners.
Good luck!
