this book was the most gut wrenching of all the hunger games books. I could rate this either 5⭐️ or non at all because of how devastated this left me. 
Suzanne Collins better sleep with one eye open tonight.

I think ballad of songbirds and snakes might still be my favourite in the series but barely. This one still has me sobbing at the end

It was beautifully written and I loved the ties to the original books and it's characters, it was certainly much more brutal to read and I found myself crying with the characters.

This is a great book! But be warned

there are a lot of scenes in which it goes into extreme detail of gore and violence by both guns and other weapons, dismemberment/beheading of characters, mainly young teenagers (12-16), and there are some scenes towards the end of the book where rabbits are killed by a snake in a glass cage. There are also mentions of a character who is in prison being at risk of rape, and some mentions of miscarriage in the past for one character. Also lots of poison and murder and angst. And one instance where a sharp needle almost pokes a character in the eye in a maze. There is a lot of detail about blood and people being blown up or cut in half, and the after math that follows.

“I’ve only ever been in an automobile a handful of times…
Never when I couldn’t see out. Never when I was being taken to die. No light, no air. Like they buried me already.”

This. Book!

This was the hardest I’ve ever sobbed in a book, I swear I was full on sobbing, ugly crying for a full half hour 😭 that end!!!

We already know Haymitch won the 50th anniversary games - the one that had double the tributes. This is the story of how it happened.

And what a story!! It had me gripped, the characters were so strong and the villains were so cruel.

If you enjoyed the hunger games, I’d definitely recommend this.
