Looking Forward To... (14)

There are so many amazing books already on the shelves and new ones coming out.
For a list of books yet to be released I'm looking to get, you can also look on my right Sidebar at the list titled Desired Reads - just scroll down. Of course there are tones of other new books to come out that are amazing as well, but these ones are part of series I have already started or for one reason or another caught my eye (and haven't seen much on other blogs yet). But I will highlight one here each week.
(mentioned in order of Release Date then Alphabetical if there are more than one book coming out on the same date.)
The Next Book Is...

Mockingjay

By: Suzanne Collins

Due out August 24, 2010

Aahhh, The Hunger Games trilogy.  Yes, this one is very well known around the blogosphere.  Yes, this one is a Young Adult series.  I got talked into reading the first book, and was so glad I listened to this great book reading friend.  I am really looking forward to seeing how Suzanne finishes this series out.  I have learned alot about the Capitol and the people.

Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she’s made it out of the bloody arena alive, she’s still not safe. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay for the unrest? Katniss. And what’s worse, President Snow has made it clear that no one else is safe either. Not Katniss’s family, not her friends, not the people of District 12. Powerful and haunting, this thrilling final installment of Suzanne Collins’s groundbreaking The Hunger Games trilogy promises to be one of the most talked about books of the year.
