Teaser Tuesday: Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

The anticipation of the release of Mockingjay was huge, and I succumbed and ordered it from the internet rather than wait for my library to get their copies in. I often find it difficult to fit in reading books that I bought as opposed to those that I borrow from the library or that I am sent for review, but I tried to make an exception for this book. I am only a couple of weeks behind everyone else then!

My teaser comes from page 90:

My ongoing struggle against the Capitol, which so often felt like a solitary journey, has not been undertaken alone. I have had thousands upon thousands of people from the districts at my side. I was their Mockingjay long before I accepted the role.



Teaser Tuesday is hosted by Miz B at Should Be Reading. Head on over to find out all about it, and how to join in!
