Hunger Games Fan Fest

Hunger Games Fan Fest

Signed Bookplate

Hi everyone! I just came back from an awesome Hunger Games Fan Fest held at our local Borders. It was a fun way to celebrate Mockingjay's release, and meet other Hunger Games fans! There were trivia questions (which I rocked at!), debate discussions, and cool giveaways. They had bookmarks and Hunger Games tattoos.

Speaking of giveaways, I won the grand prize! There was a drawing for a special signed Suzanne Collins Bookplate, and I was the lucky winner picked. The bookplate is the picture you see above. A bookplate is a label you put on the inside cover of a book. It was actually signed by Suzanne Collins! I thought that this was pretty cool, as she isn’t even signing her own books, but is stamping them while on tour due to a hand injury. I could attach the bookplate to one of my Hunger Games books if I wanted to, but I think I’ll save it for now. The Hunger Games Fan Fest was a blast, and I’m so glad I went!

-This is T.B. with Another Book Back on the Shelf...
Until Next Time, Keep Reading!

  1. I've heard of a few popular authors who are unable to sign their books because of wrist / hand problems. I guess there are even drawbacks to being a mega-popular author. ;O)

    You must have been so excited to win the Grand Prize! Pretty cool.

  2. Winning the Grand Prize was really cool! I agree, and I think there are always drawbacks to becoming a mega-popular author. Including wrist injuries.

  3. That's not a stamp. The stamp looks like a stamp from a stamp pad, that is a real signature. I have several bookplated booked from her and the signatures are all different.
