The way Snow becomes more and more chilling holy hell
Well, it didn’t make me like Snow - which I guess was the goal. Also... “snow lands on top?” Corny. Vom. Overall, I was entertained, but Sejanus’ death was so rushed and the Lucy/Coriyo lovers to enemies scene at the end was also rushed and weird. Another general note: the world of the Capitol wasn’t built out very well in this book and I was a little lost on timeline/context because it was very philosophy heavy. BUT I am excited to re-watch the Hunger Games movies for fun!
fast-paced
Truthfully, Suzanne Collins just cannot miss for me. Though this was not my favorite of her books, I still ate it up the whole way through. I do regret watching the movie first because I feel like I was not as attached to the story had I read the book first. But all in all it Snow is evil, that’s evident.

Excellent writing and fantastic storytelling; my only complaint is that the pacing felt uneven throughout the book. (Although that might have been on purpose.) A terrific addition to the universe Collins has created. I was hooked from the start, so sometimes I read from the book, and sometimes I listened to the audiobook.
