LOL! I love that you mentioned Mockingjay is the book everyone in the world bought this past week!! I can not wait to see the stats on the sales!=) I am thinking of buying another copy- perhaps the whole set and never open them. LOL!

Enjoy your reads this week!

Thanks for dropping by my blog to check out my IMM! I'm also really curious about Jane because of Angie's review, even though I haven't read Jane Eyre.

Yay for Mockingjay! I saw your one-word spoiler and I think it's funny that you decided to review it that way. :)

I got The Reapers are the Angels too. It looks like quite a few have it for review. I'm anxious to read it and to see others reviews. The reviews on amazon definitely are what convinced me to accept it for review.
