“Happy Birthday, Haymitch!”

My heart has been shattered and I don’t know if I’ll ever recover from this book.

Is this an absolutely perfect book and I have no problems with it whatsoever (aka a 5 star book), no maybe not but this book means so much to me and to the world of hunger games. This book really shows you that Katniss was not this perfect person and no one could have done it without her, this shows that she really was just a girl that had an army, luck and great timing. I love that this book tells us that Katniss is not the chosen one and everything happening in the other books is not just to punish Katniss cause she is one of a kind, it's to punish everyone and anyone who dares to speak up. 

I love all the lore drops in this and the complex characters. My fav moment is with the candy and the tree that show you that these are just kids who have grown up thinking everyone but the government is the enemy, the rich folks, the other districts, the careers when really only one person can stop all of this and we made thirst traps for him (sorry Suzanne). 

If you can't tell, all hunger books and media have a special place in my heart and I will be ofc biased for that but this is not only fan service and if you want to criticize the book it has other things you could be criticizing... but also... don't because I love it!

Great addition to the Hunger Games series! It was intriguing to learn more of Haymitch's backstory. I see his character in the original series in a much different light now. This book made him even more tragic; I didn't know that was even possible.
