Books to Movies Giveaway Hop

Welcome to my stop on the Books to Movies Giveaway Hop!  This hop features books that have been made into movies or TV shows.  It is the choice of each blog stop whether to give away a copy of the book, the movie, or both!  But, c'mon, guys...how could I not give away both?!? 

You have to have been living under a rock not to know how awesome both this book and movie are, but just in case, here's what I'm giving away:

Title:  The Hunger Games

Author:  Suzanne Collins

Series:  1st book in The Hunger Games trilogy

Publisher:  Scholastic Press

Publication Date:  October 31, 2008

Could you survive on your own, in the wild, with everyone out to make sure you don't live to see the morning? In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by twelve outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of twelve and eighteen to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV. Sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives alone with her mother and younger sister, regards it as a death sentence when she steps forward to take her sister’s place in the Games. But Katniss has been close to dead before—and survival, for her, is second nature. Without really meaning to, she becomes a contender. But if she is to win, she will have to start making choices that will weigh survival against humanity and life against love.

In addition to a hardcover of The Hunger Games, I'm also giving away this exclusive Blu-ray gift set, all to ONE lucky winner:

The gift set includes the following, in addition to a Blu-ray copy of the movie, in case you can't view the image above:

• Parachute Compartment Necklace that opens to reveal secret canister
• Bag Clip, featuring the District 12 seal
• 14" Arena Sack: Authentic prop replica, made of nylon

I'll admit, when I first got mine, I thought it was going to be soooo cheesy, but once I opened it up, you should have seen me ohhhing and ahhhing and squeeeing.  My husband just didn't understand until he saw the movie.  And now he's reading the series.  So there!  :0)
