March is officially Hunger Games month here at HogwartsProfessor in celebration of the stories themselves and the movie release on the 23rd! In addition to Prof. Elizabeth’s review of HogPro’s Greatest Hits on the Panem Saga, I’ll be giving three lectures, one on each of the three novels, at Full Circle bookstore in Oklahoma City.

I’ll make an announcement here, of course, when that happens.The three talks will be a taste of my new book in the works, this one tentatively titled For the Serious Reader of The Hunger Games: Seven Keys that Open Up the Artistry, Meaning, and Magic of Suzanne Collins’ Panem Trilogy.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Let the Countdown of Blogs begin!
Since we are now only 23 days away from the official launch of The Hunger Games film, we are going to be featuring some of our favorite posts about the novels and the preparations for this movie. There is also plenty of news buzzing about, so maybe we’ll get to talk about some of that, too. (Yes, I do have a few things to say about the Glamour magazine photo shoot of Jennifer Lawrence. I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve said “Did you people even read this book?”) For starters, let’s just jump straight to the Cornucopia bloodbath. Here is a run-down of our first Hunger Games posts from 2010. Though we never did get some of the answers we were all hoping for back then, the analysis and insights here are still relevant. So, just in case you missed them the first time or would like to catch the re-runs, here is our first round up of posts on The Hunger Games. Watch for more as March 23 draws closer, and let us know if there are favorites you’d like to see!
