Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins
My rating: 5/5 cats
these are the things i have done for this book:
i have given up my birthday, waiting in line from 5PM until its midnight release, braving the crowds and noise and commotion…
i have missed my subway stop and ended up taking the crappy way into work…
i have seriously considered calling out of work to sit at home and finish it…
i have read in elevators, while walking down the street, walking up the stairs, while eating dinner without even tasting it…
i have rushed my beloved dawn powell’s book, racing through it so i could get to this book as quickly as possible…
i have come home to a laundry bag full of clothing that needed to be folded and a bunch of dishes that needed to be done – ignoring which usually gives me mental discomfort… but i did…
i have thrown off my netflix schedule for the week…
i have read this book in one day, and now i am wanting more…
*********************************************************************************
i just realized that this book comes out the day after my birthday. which means i will then be 33, and will have waited in anticipation for a TEEN FICTION book for almost a year. and i will probably read it in a day, and afterward feel utterly shattered with lacking. and then i can go be a grown-up again.
but for now, i can’t help it, it’s that good of a series, and i have given up any adult-shame i might have felt for bouncing up and down in my skin with wanting this book this very minute.
32 and still a child…
