This was harder to read than past books with everything going on in the world. It offered some interesting backstory on characters we know from the other books, in particular Haymitch, but it doesn’t really offer anything new or especially interesting.

Suzanne Collins kills it every time! Fantastically harrowing book. I'm glad Haymitch's story has finally been told, and it was great to see the beginnings of some very well loved characters.

This felt like an elevated fanfic to please the audience after the success of the original trilogy with the clear mission of immediately adapting it into a movie, but I'm not complaining! I thought it was great - not as good as the original trilogy but lightyears ahead of the Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, with plenty of callbacks and tie-ins. It was fun to see how the story unfolded when you already know how it ends.

This book gave me so much nostalgia from reading the original trilogy. I throughly enjoyed this read, but boy oh boy did the author make each death more gut-wrenching than the last.
