I got bored with the survivalism - it’s pretty sickening to read about children fighting tooth and nail to survive (but that’s the point).

Rereading this series to read the newest book (2020) only to announce they’re adding a fourth in 2025! I forget how much i enjoyed this series as a kid, and it still holds up today. I still critique the use of the love triangle, but i understand why it’s included. Overall still a great, enjoyable read.

Just completed my third time reading, and my first time using the audiobook, and I’m still filled with such deep love for this story. I enjoy this book everytime and it never gets old. It’s truly a lasting, all-time favorite.
