Rereading this series to read the newest book (2020) only to announce they’re adding a fourth in 2025! I forget how much i enjoyed this series as a kid, and it still holds up today. I still critique the use of the love triangle, but i understand why it’s included. Overall still a great, enjoyable read.

“Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.”

I ate it up but are we shocked? (no)
I love the world building a lot, it really feels like you're there.

Katniss literally just trying to survive but any acts outside the box is being seen as a rebellion but she literally doesn't fr want to is interesting. 

Katniss and Peeta both retaining disabilities from surviving the games is also interesting, alongside Haymitch's alcoholism, showing that no one survives the games completely unscathed.

Why did Peeta have so much rizz omg?

I remember reading this series as the movies were coming out and i absolutely loved it. coming back to it now as a fan of the dark and gritty dystopian novels, i’ve fallen in love with it once again.
