In other news, the trade paperback edition of the first book in the trilogy, The Hunger Games, will be released on July 6, 2010.
The Hunger Games, released in September 2008, has 800,000 copies in print; book two, Catching Fire, came out this past September and has more than 750,000 copies in print. Foreign rights for the books have been sold into 37 territories to date, and Lionsgate has optioned movie rights.
The title for book three will be announced early next year.
Here’s to hoping they don’t totally ruin the series by making it into a crappy movie! Hunger Games is one of my favorite YA series, I’d hate to see it turn out bad.

After defying Lucifer to save her best friend Delaney, ex-demon Marcella Acosta has been banished to exist in the plane between heaven and hell — and there isn’t a shopping mall in sight. After numerous failed attempts to contact Delaney through a bunch of hack mediums, Marcella’s at her wit’s end. But there’s one medium she’s hasn’t tried yet, and he just happens to be Delaney’s scorching hot brother Kellen — the one guy who never gave Marcella the time of day.
