'The Hanging Tree'

Are you, are you
coming to the tree
where they strung up a man they say murdered three
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree


Are you, are you
coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree


Are you, are you
coming to the tree
Where I told you to run so we'd both be free
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree


Are you, are you
coming to the tree
Wear a necklace of rope side by side with me
Strange things did happen here
No stranger would it be
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree

It's a lovely version of the song though I heard it in my head differently I like this version. If you want to listen to the same song with piano on the background listen to it here.

Finished Mockingjay

I just finished Mockingjay not too long ago.

All I can say without spoiling it for others who haven't finished it that I really didn't like the ending of the book.

I thought it was rather slow at times and I would wonder off thinking and not concentrating on the story.
Now I can't wait for the director of the film to be annouced. And the cast, epecially the cast. Who isn't waiting for that?

MOCKINGJAY #1 on USA & NYT Bestseller!

That brings the total copies of Mockingjay in print in the U.S. to 1.6 million since the book's release on August 24th.

Craziest Thing Happened

I went to Target not so long ago. And went straight to the book section.

They had Mockingjay on the stand already.

But then when I was about to pay they didn't sell it to me because the system wouldn't allow it.

Oh, well.

The cover was really nice. Going tomorrow morning to get that copy!

Mockingjay Out Tomorrow!

I'm sorry. Usually I use to update this blog frequently, but lately things have happened. Hopefully I can get back on track since the release of Mockingjay.
Don't forget tomorrow you can pick up Mockingjay anywhere near you.

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.


Come back and let me know you've gotten your copy of Mockingjay. I will open up a discussion thread where you guys can discuss it, but this will open up on Saturday, hopefully. That way we can give other readers time to finish it or not get spoiled since it's the last book and everyone wants to find out what happens!
