This was a great book. I loved the arena. It was fascinating (and heartbreaking) reading Haymitch’s backstory. I would recommend it to any fan of the Hunger Games series.

omg 😭 This book was so good! I legit stayed up until 5:30am to finish it. I just couldn’t put it down despite repeatedly telling myself “just one more chapter.”

Devastation is all I can say about this book, it was so immensely sad and dark but had the slimmest moments of hope throughout. Haymitch is now and forever my favorite Hunger Games character, what he went thru is so terrible and makes me wonder how many other Victor's stories are just like his or worse. The way I loathe Snow is insane, he is probably my most hated villain of all time now if he wasn't already. I forgot how good/gut wrenching reading a Hunger Games novel is, the author just makes you care so much about these characters and even if you know how it will end you have hope that it will be different this time. This was a great book, definitely go into it knowing your heart will be ripped out and stomped on though.
