Mockingjay and Clockwork Angel

This is a very exciting month - two books from major authors are coming out. First of all, there is Suzanne Collins final book "Mockingjay" which is part of the Hunger Games trilogy. I cannot wait to read about Katniss, the demolition of District 12, where Peeta and Cinna are being held and of course the hopefully (fingers crossed) relationship between Gale and Katniss. I read on a Twitter post that Suzanne Collins leaked that Katniss may not survive which would be sad but probably a more realistic ending. A lot of fans have created YouTube videos for the upcoming book. Check them out by going to YouTube and typing in "Mockingjay book trailers". Some of them are really well done.


Secondly, there is Cassandra Clare's book "Clockwork Angel" which is a prequel to the Mortal Instruments series. To read an except from Clockwork Angel, just follow this link: looking forward to Cassandra Clare's new novel - Clockwork Angel?

I am looking foward to my amazon delivery for these two books ;)

The thing about Twitter

To be honest, I am not a big Twitter fan. I understand its use but I could not see myself “tweeting” throughout the day … I mean really, who has the time. I decided to give it a try though for the library to see if it would be a useful tool. I can now say that I have been converted. I am not tweeting as much as some people but the information that I get from the people I follow is incredible.


For instance, did you know that Melissa Marr is going on tour with her fellow genre authors and will be hitting Toronto. Sadly there is no Montreal date.

There are also some great contests going on. This one is really cool if you like reading Cassandra Clare - http://bit.ly/d6Rccd

Needless to say, I am hooked
