Incredible. Flawless. Deliciously brutal. Everything I wanted Haymitch’s story to be and more. Also I’m so sorry for whatever we did to deserve this, Suzanne.

Use of poems towards the end was a bit much in my opinion.

I really enjoyed the way this book seems to tie together A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes to the Katniss era Hunger Games Books. Any of the holes I thought were there after reading the first epilogue have now been filled for the most part.
Although this one was one of the sadder books and had a couple death scenes that made my stomach upset, (and I’m not squeamish!)
it’s an important read for anyone as a Hunger Games fan.
Haymitch has so much character development and there are many, “oh so that’s why” moments.
This book kept me at the edge of my seat and I appreciated the Epilogue ending on a note that wasn’t so depressing since Haymitch’s story is quite dark. (I know, I know… it’s a hunger games book so it will be dark. But even then it surpassed what I expected)
Finishing this book makes me want to go read the Mockingjay books again!
May the odds be ever in your favor…

Before I start giant spoiler warning I'm going to try to use the spoiler feature but I'm new to using it so I might use it wrong. 
this book has both broken my heart and also healed a tiny bit of it with the ending. Suzzane is really so good at writing it's insane. The simliarites between katniss and haymitch became even more obvious reading this book. Both of them escape their pain in similar ways (haymitch and her both trying to knock themselves out. And louella was haymitches prim). It broke my heart how he drove everybody away but that is also literally how katniss was in mockingjay. Haymitch saying he wasnt a drinker at the beginningof the book broke my heart. Another thought i had this whole time is how they both so desperately tried to end their own lives but stayed alive for the person they loved. Mags is such a beautiful soul and im so glad we got to see her talk. Her and haymitchs relationship through the sponsor gifts reminds me so much of how haymitch tried to comminucate with katniss in the areana. This book really expanded on all the characters we already knew and i loved it. The main point was obviously propaganda and i think it came out at just the right time. Suzzane collins never misses.

Anyways, those were my raw chaotic thoughts right after finishing the books and I hope I used the spoiler feature right!
