A Letter to Author Suzanne Collins

This is a letter to author Suzanne Collins and the publishers at Scholastic. I have a request for you all:
When you finish the last book of the Hunger Games, may I please, please have an advanced copy? I will beg, I will pay, and I will come and fetch coffee for you for the rest of my natural existence. Anything to alleviate this torture of waiting that I am currently experiencing.
You see, as I was a bookstore employee, I was constantly surrounded by people who love books as much as I do. After I heard many, many people talk about The Hunger Games and how amazing it was, I decided to see for myself.
I was immediately addicted. I couldn’t put it down. I did one better than Stephanie Meyer. She may have taken the book to dinner and hidden it under the table so she wouldn’t have to stop reading, but I stayed up for an entire day! That’s right. I was up for a full twenty-four hours, completely unable to tear myself away from the trials of Katniss and Peeta. And, of course, Cinna, who is without a doubt my favorite character.
As I finished the book, there were a few things I had left to wonder. What was Gale going to say to Katniss as the Peacekeepers drug him away? Was he going to tell her that he loved her? And now that she had won the Games, could they possibly have a chance at a relationship together? What about Peeta? Pure, dear Peeta. How would he play into all of this?
But I was assuaged. See, one privilege I had at working at the bookstore was that I was able to pick up advanced copies of upcoming books. And when an advanced copy of Catching Fire came in, I snatched it up before anyone else could even have a chance.
I have just now closed the cover, and I must admit that I am seething with anger. Not because the book was horrible, or that I was disappointed in it. Quite the opposite. I am so very angry because I know it will be a long time before I am able to finish the story.
What happened to Cinna? Is he still alive? How far does the rebellion spread? How many people in the Capitol are in on it? What is going to happen to Peeta and Johanna? And, now that Gale and Katniss are reunited, what will happen to them? What about the mysterious District 13? And what about the remains of District 12?
These are questions that I must have answered, and soon! I cannot wait to find out. I am not a very patient person, and I will be up all hours of the night, wondering what will happen to the girl who was on fire.
For those of you who might be a little lost as to what I am rambling on about, go to your nearest bookstore and pick up a copy of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games. It will be located in the Teen Fiction aisle. This is a wonderful book, no matter how old you are. And, on September 1, you have to go out and buy Catching Fire, book two in the series.
Of course, if I’m not mistaken, there’s a movie adaption of The Hunger Games in the works. I suppose that will tide me over. But Ms. Collins, Scholastic Books, if you would be so kind as to send me a silver parachute bearing a copy of the last book when it becomes available, I just might be able to survive these Games.
