Come read what's happening in the bookish world. 

We finally get to see a cover we have all been waiting for. I can hear every single Divergent fan cheering for the new cover for Insurgent by Veronica Roth. 
I think its PERFECT!!!!!! I wonder hat this new symbol means and how it will relate to Insurgent. Cant wait until I am able to grab a copy. May just seems so far away but soon it will be upon us. You can read about Insurgent over at EW

Also in the news recently we now know that The Hunger Games filming is a Wrap! Lionsgate posted a official press release. 

SANTA MONICA, CA (September 15, 2011) - LIONSGATE® (NYSE: LGF), a leading global entertainment company, today announced the close of principal photography on the highly anticipated film adaptation of Suzanne Collins’ runaway bestselling novel The Hunger Games. Lionsgate will release THE HUNGER GAMES on March 23, 2012. The film is the first in a series that Lionsgate is making based on the book trilogy that has become a worldwide phenomenon.

Filmed entirely in North Carolina, the locations spanned from a dense forest in which the arena that hosts the games themselves was created to a town that stood in for Katniss’ home, District 12, to a sound stage that was the platform for the fantastical sights and sounds of The Capitol, the futuristic capital city of the nation of Panem. Principal photography on the 84 day production began on May 23rd.

The film pairs Oscar® nominee Jennifer Lawrence (WINTER’S BONE, X-MEN FIRST CLASS) with Josh Hutcherson (THE KIDS ARE ALRIGHT) and Liam Hemsworth (THE LAST SONG) in the key young adult roles. Rounding out the cast is a who’s who of acclaimed adult actors: Oscar® nominee Woody Harrelson, Elizabeth Banks, Lenny Kravitz, Oscar® nominee Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland, Wes Bentley and Toby Jones.

“It has been an absolute thrill watching THE HUNGER GAMES, a project that has truly become part of Lionsgate’s DNA since our acquisition of the book in 2009, come to life. What I observed on set was impressive on every level, and reinforced my confidence that we have assembled precisely the right team to bring Suzanne Collins’ brilliant novel to the big screen,” said Joe Drake, Lionsgate’s co-COO and Motion Picture Group President.


so that's it for this edition of Extra, Extra. See ya next time.

  2. The tree symbol is Amity's symbol, like how the fire symbol on Divergent's cover was for Dauntless. Abignation is two hands clasped together, Erudite is an eye, and Candor is a set of scales.

    Yes, I know I'm cool and know all of this worthless information. You don't have to thank me ;)
