'Just Rewards (2)'
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I see Finnick as a younger taller Jude Law, when he was really radiant.
Follow this logic: I expect Finnick to have dark hair, because he's from the district that has the ocean, and...Submariner has dark hair. No, seriously. That's how my train of thought went. Don't judge me.
RDJ as Haymitch has me thinking that Jeffrey Dean Morgan could be good.
Oh, wow. Yeah. Yeah yeah yeah.
Note for those who haven't yet read Mockingjay- it was Chapter 14 when the book finally let me put it down so plan for 200 pages of solid reading if you're like me.
I recently read and loved The Rabbi's Cat by Joann Sfar.
I second this recommendation. Have they translated all 5 volumes?
Man, I have got to read these books. (And not just because of the JDM image. Though it doesn't hurt.)
Have they translated all 5 volumes?
The five French volumes were compiled into two English-language books.

I hate when they do that. Is the format smaller? I just got the first 3-in-1 volume of Tintin for my step-niece, and it's so small!
Is the format smaller?
I don't know. Amazon.com gives the dimensions of the book (10.2 x 7.9 x 0.5 inches), but Amazon.fr doesn't.
French comics are almost all the same format, something like 9x12 I'd say.
ETA: Actually 24 x 32 cm so more like 9.5 x 12.5 inches.
Okay, this bit from Mark Reads the Hunger Games made me laugh and laugh (italics are the quote from the book):
I hear Cinna’s voice, carrying images of rich fabric and sparkling gems. “Katniss, the girl who was on fire.” What a good laugh the Gamemakers must be having over that one. Perhaps, Cinna’s beautiful costumes have even been brought on this particular torture for me. [Note: this is after Katniss was burned in Chapter 13.]
FUCK. How terrible. I didn’t even think of this. I guess the Gamemakers appreciate violent irony. So they’re like the very worst hipsters of all time or something.
That's AWESOME.
Ooh, I'm ahead of you, P-C! I just started Chapter 16.
Oh, cool. How's the weather over there? Bleak? Dismal? OMGWTF?
What chapter is the Mark Reads guy up to?
Amy, he's still in the first book, so he's completely safe to read.
Alan Cumming as Cinna is good, but I picture him younger. Like that Cheeks guy.
I don't know this Finnick guy, but I have a feeling he's going to show up soon.
