Maybe it’s just me cause Snow was never a villain I loved to hate. He was always on par with characters like Umbridge from Harry Potter. They don’t deserve redemption, & that’s what this book seemed to try to convey for most of the book atleast. 🤷🏻♀️

I read the Hunger Games series many, many years ago and really loved it. So, I was excited to dive back into this world but, if I'm honest, I found it really slow.
While Collins does a good job to get the reader to buy into Snow as a sympathetic character and then absolutely destroys everything in the final few pages. I didn't expect her to light the character on fire like she did.
But the worst part? I didn't even really care. I found that all of the characters irritated me by the end. I don't know if that was the intention because of our narrator or not, but that's what I felt.
