Catching Fire GIVEAWAY!

Scholastic and Dina of Big Honco Media have given me this amazing opportunity of hosting an amazing CATCHING FIRE GIVEAWAY! Seriously, if I weren't myself, I'd totally enter my own contest. Because look at what you can get!

Three (3) lucky winners will receive:
  • very limited edition promotional T-shirt (only 300 made!)
  • collectible gold mocking jay pin
  • copy of Catching Fire
If you're a visual kind of person, check out the book trailer:


And here are some more visuals you'll want to see: the beautiful cover of Catching Fire (which you could own!!) and that t-shirt.


Oh man. That t-shirt. It's gorgeous. I want that t-shirt.

If you've been living under a rock for the past year, check out the official Hunger Games website for more information, as well as to read the first chapter of Catching Fire.

To enter: Just leave your email address, and preferably something interesting/funny/relevant/rip-roaringly unique to keep me entertained. :)

Open to: 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.

Ends: Friday, September 25, 2009

Good luck!

  1. I haven't read Hunger Games yet because I have heard so many mixed reviews about it! But what better than a contest for the second book to get me motivated enough to read it!! I hope I win this and can enjoy the books as much as everyone else!!

    P.S. This giveaway rocks my socks. I have a serious thing for t-shirts. Which sucks btw because I work in an office sometimes and have no dressy shirts. Just can't help my love for graphic tees <33

    The voice of the character Gollum from the Lord of the Rings movie is based on a cat coughing up a hairball. Ick.

    And as for interesting or funny, a few months ago I was taking a walk when a strange old man walked by me, smiling, and looking around...with a ketchup bottle in his hands. Why he had it, I have no clue. There wasn't a grocery store in sight and it didn't look like he was headed anywhere in particular. I thought it was kind of funny and random. lol.

  46. Well, not so sure this will be funny to you...but this past weekend a bunch of my friends met up in Chicago for a weekend vacation (we all live across the US). My friend, Billy, saw who he thought was me from behind so he walked up to "me" and said "high five". Well, it turns out it wasn't me and the girl gave Billy a weird look and then a high five. It was probably funnier hearing him tell it, but it made us cry we were laughing so hard!

  47. OMG! I'd love to read this! You know when the Clone Wars came out in theaters? My friend and I were the only ones dressed up (we had the cloaks, lightsabers, and all that jazz!) and people were all like "hey you guys are cool" but then later, when we entered the movie theaters, there were these guys all pimped out in super realistic Stormtrooper and Darth Vader costumes! Gah! And we didn't even have a camera too! Totally stole our thunder! Haha. =P.

I'd love the chance to enter this contest to get Catching Fire. Maybe I'll start with that first before tackiling the first book.

  70. If I had that shirt, I'd have yet another obscure reference shirt with which to confuse my coworkers, which is always awesome.

    This book sounds incredible. When I first heard the synopsis for the 1st book in the series, Hunger Games, I thought "Oh, that's been done before," but the more I learn about it, the more I'm drawn in. I need to read these books!
