The action was compelling and the characters well-crafted and interesting. You really cared about wether they succeeded. Being a prequel, you know how it has to end, but that doesn’t stop you from being emotionally invested.

dark sad tense

God that was so brutal. Probably the saddest of all the books. Really had the same tone and energy of the first two books.

 Suzanne Collins is once again back at it to tear my heart into pieces. Haymitch's slow decent from a boy who was rather content in his life to the shell of a man we meet in The Hunger Games is as soul crushing as it is impossible to turn away from, proving to us if you thought you knew what happened, maybe you too had fallen for Panem's propaganda. The author had something and she slams you in the face with it, and I loved every second of it. Bring tissues with you, you're going to need them

This book gave me chills while reading because it was so good. There is a lot of emotion, Haymitch has a great backstory worth your time. It gives you some background information for certain things such as why Haymitch calls Katniss sweetheart in her books. I would read 'The Ballad Of Songbirds And Snakes' before this book to make some of the scenes more clear so that you can understand it better. 5 stars easily.
