Catching Fire- Initial Reaction

I'll publish a full review closer to the release date, but I just finished the book and I have to say W.O.W. Wow! My expectations for this book were incredibly high, and Catching Fire completely exceeded them. You all need to read The Hunger Games RIGHT NOW so you can be ready for Sept. 1 when Catching Fire is released.

And can I just say I adore Peeta? I liked him in The Hunger Games, but now I think he's replaced Edward Cullen and possibly even Mr. Darcy in my affections.

Replaced Darcy? He must be amazing in this book (I really liked him in the Hunger Games too)

YAY! I am even more excited to read this (it WILL be this week!) now.

Oh my goodness! A character strong enough to replace Edward Cullen and Mr. Darcy?
WOW!
That right there may be the best recommendation I've ever read.
Those are some strong characters.
I've been wanting to read Hunger Games and now that you tell me this I better hurry up and get to it, huh?

Side note: Funny I have the opposite favorite characters. I'm a Jacob Black and Edgar Linton/Hareton Earnshaw girl.

A character good enough to replace Mr. Darcy; Wow, Peter must be something! I've still got to read The Hunger Games, but from everything I've heard, it's a really good read.

Mr. Darcy and Edward? *jaw drops*

B-b-but...what about Gale????

This is in my TBR stack. I really need to just pull it out and read it.
