Peeta and Gale from Hunger Games are on the cover of Entertainment Weekly What do you think? I'm hoping Gale and Peeta's looks are different in the movie than the are on the cover. IMO both of them look too old and I've always imagined Peeta as looking younger and softer than that. Katniss looks okay.

The publication date for The Fault in Our Stars by John Green has been moved up from to January 10th from May. My first thought: IS IT JANUARY 10TH YET?

I saw that pic of Katniss when it first came out, and I think she looks good. The guys look older in this cover pic, so it will be interesting to see how they act in the movie. Can't wait for it to come out.

Thanks for the link to WriteOnCom. I don't know much about it, so I'll check it out.
