I took my time reading this and WOW did I enjoy every single bit of it. Everything shocked me and whenever something new and interesting was said I had to take some time away to think about it. I abandoned this book back in middle school because it didn't interest me but I'm so glad I picked it up again!

Interesting premise if you’re trying to relive your Hunger Games era. My biggest gripe is that women are only here to be a stepping stone on his heroes journey. 🙃 That being said I enjoyed the twists and strategy and am curious to see Darrow’s rise.
