This was such a fun rereading experience. I found a copy at a library sale and thought it would be a good book to break up the thriller I’m supposed to read for book club, but once I started I couldn’t stop! My sleep schedule this week was so bad because I couldn’t put this book down.

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.
