HATE HATE HATE. The Rogue One of the Hunger Games. How to we get from A to B without having actually thought it out before either A or B were made.
What utter fan service. I understand that the Hunger Games has always and will always be a story based on politics. But the popularity has gone to her head this was just too much for me in the current political climate.
The things I liked - Mags, Wiress and Beetee's storyline and endings. That is it.
This was entirely fan service, and I hate how you know these are now written to be directly cut from the book to a script for a movie. They lack depth now and all characters who are deemed to be favorites are written to be idealised and heros. Hamish being such a revolutionary girl please.
First thing that annoyed me is that she is no longer following a chronological order it is purely oh you want it yeah let me pluck out a random timeline try fill too much in and not have it really make sense if this was really thought out. I would do anything to have this book be released before the film series even was released then it would have actually served the story and not the fans.
The games were a huge let down. Why have over 40 competitors yet had Hamitch go off solo and be boring as. Least infesting games of any book.
The direct mention and showing of Lucy Gray was ridiculous! The poems, songs or bloody jingle's were excessive and so painful to read.
Find a creative way to refer to "my poster my poster". And please the set up for Plutarch was so forced.
Ultimately, lacked creativity and felt as a way to get to the exact second the original starts, and lacked a depth where you learnt interesting things about the capitol or how the games were. Because if they were really like this then every tribute would have been fitted out with a kill switch and Snow would have ensured Beatie and Haymitch never had anything to do with each other again. Can't wait for this series to be milked dry with another illogical time gap and fan service script to be released.

Haymitch story is sooo well written! In the hunger games trilogy I always thought he didn't know how to handle the trauma of killing in the hunger games, but his story is sooo much more. I feel for him in so many ways. He has a big heart and wants better for his people in district 12 but does so in a way that catches Snow's attention. Snow is just so so vindictive and literally destroys Haymitch on a psychological and emotional level. Suzanna Collins did an amazing job writing in Haymitch's perspective. I enjoyed the connections to The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and the history of the people in the original Hunger Game trilogy.

this book is…….. not good. i genuinely had a better idea for this book and i do think i ruined it for myself going into it because of this. to me the thing that’s missing from thg is any information about the career tributes upbringing. zero zero zero cannon for information on HOW they are trained the games and WHAT they are taught to feel passionate honor in killing their peers

this book stabbed me and twisted the knife istg, this book makes the series even better, it’s the missing puzzle piece and god this was amazing i can’t explain it, the epilogue tore me apart, the amount of lore drops this book had is insane
