Just completed my third time reading, and my first time using the audiobook, and I’m still filled with such deep love for this story. I enjoy this book everytime and it never gets old. It’s truly a lasting, all-time favorite.

“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?

It was pretty good, but not an overall favorite. I wasn’t too fond of the whole

“the mutts are actually the dead tributes”

thing, but it does help convey the horrors and atrocities that the Capital and the game makers commit during the games.

Overall, it was well written and a pretty good read, especially if you’re in a reading slump.

The reason I included mental illness is because of Katniss’ PTSD from the death of her father.
