I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be crazy if that was actually a dove?"
Returning inside, I looked up what a dove looks like. It was a dove. What the fuck???
I first read the Hunger Games books in elementary school. Haymitch was my favorite. I couldn't pick up on the historical or political undertones at the time, but even without that knowledge, the books were still massively enjoyable and inspiring to me.
As an adult, these books make my heart ache even more. You really don't realize how young the characters are until you are past that age yourself. You can't mirror the extreme emotions the characters go through about their loved ones until you experience what love really means to yourself.
Oh man, I knew I was in for a trip as soon as I recognized Lenore's name as an allusion to The Raven. Well, I knew that this book was going to be crazy way before since it's about Haymitch's life. Going in, you already know that he gets a good ending, but he has suffered through so much, like Katniss. Jeez, how he's suffered.
I'm not sure if I can even begin to express all my thoughts here. I have far too many. It's great. Read the damn book.

I feel physically ill. My head hurts. It’s past 2 AM. I’m staring at my copy of The Hunger Games and debating with myself if I should restart the whole series (I guess I’m a masochist).
