Five For Friday: The Hunger Games

It’s Friday! That means it’s time for Five Things. Last night, I went to see The Hunger Games at the movies. I thought it was brilliant – it stayed very true to the book, unlike many book-to-movie conversions. You can see my review for The Hunger Games book over at Once Upon A Time. I’m […]
