This time around, I finished the book in a matter of hours. I can appreciate the story so much more now.

Prim's death

was the first time a book made me cry. That memory is so strong in my head that I had forgotten how horrific some other parts are. 10/10 for catharsis, exactly what I needed.

Really solid ending to a series that changed the face of dystopian fiction. There isn't much to say that hasn't already been said!! Sad that my time in this universe is almost to an end.

Wow this book is just incredible, this is my 2nd time reading it (first time was a long time ago) and is just such an amazing book, so tragic and emotional and intense. This really is just as good as the hunger games and catching fire, like it’s obviously not focusing on the actual games but it’s different and much more reality focuses with the war and the Capitol and District 13 and everything. It’s just intense and keeps you engaged the whole time. I could say so much more about this but i’ll leave it at that for now, again it's amazing, the whole trilogy is, probably my favorite book series ever now.
