my god this book is a banger. was suzanne collins sent the story in a vision from god because i would believe that

she still very evidently has her limitations as a writer of prose and i still so desperately wish i could hand off the hunger games to any number of writers and say “write the exact same story but write it better.” but i can’t deny ms. collins was working on another level storywise with this one. worldbuilding is still strong, and the character work too. 

can’t wait to get to mockingjay, which i recall being received as a letdown of a finale when it was released in my circle (of 14 year olds). i have a sneaking suspicion that mockingjay should have been two books (meaning in a roundabout way that two movies was actually correct…) but we’ll see!

This was such a good follow up to the first book! I am so glad I'm finally reading this series because I absolutely love it! The characters are perfect to follow, and the resilience they show is incredible, especially Katniss, who is beginning to become a favorite character of all time. I am so excited to read the next book and to see how this story ends!
