THE CAST AND CHARACTER POSTERS OF THE HUNGER GAMES MOVIE

I've been wanting to do this post for a long time and I'm so happy to be finally doing it!!
When I first found out that there was going to be a Hunger Games movie, I was really excited but I couldn't help thinking if it would ruin the book... I hope it doesn't because The Hunger Games is a really good book (if you haven't read it you should!) -and series, by Suzanne Collins.
The movie comes out 23rd March! Can't wait! (Scroll down for the trailer)

Anyway... THE CAST!!

Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen

February Book of The Month

THE FEBRUARY BOOK OF THE MONTH: BORN WICKED, JESSICA SPOTSWOOD



Born Wicked by Jessica Spotswood. 



I'll be looking out for this this month. It comes out 7th Feb, so go get it then! 



Summary:
"Blessed with a gift..."cursed" with a secret." 
Everybody knows Cate Cahill and her sisters are eccentric. Too pretty, too reclusive, and far too educated for their own good. But the truth is even worse: they're witches. And if their secret is discovered by the priests of the Brotherhood, it would mean an asylum, a prison ship - or an early grave. 
Before her mother died, Cate promised to protect her sisters. But with only six months left to choose between marriage and the Sisterhood, she might not be able to keep her word . . . especially after she finds her mother's diary, uncovering a secret that could spell her family's destruction. Desperate to find alternatives to their fate, Cate starts scouring banned books and questioning rebellious new friends, all while juggling tea parties, shocking marriage proposals, and a forbidden romance with the completely unsuitable Finn Belastra. 

If what her mother wrote is true, the Cahill girls aren't safe. Not from the Brotherhood, the Sisterhood - not even from each other.
