it''s scary to know that there are snoops watching everything we do :o
ReplyDeleteread the sample of pirate cinema from Itunes today when i was home sick. really wish i hadnt. now im sucked up in another book but dont have any money atm to actually buy the book lol. i love how the society the book talks about is somewhat true and i can see in the not so distant future. its also so different than any other book i have read(and enjoyed) there is no witches and wizards. no districts set to chose a tribute to fight to the death. no halfbloods and gods. its somewhat scary to think that anyone could lose their internet access just by downloading something illegally. i mean its SO easy to. heck you can illegally download something on accident knowing nothing about it, thats how easy it is, i think that's what makes the book good with also the humor cory put in. :)
