✨4.5/5✨
Stunning, brilliant, fantastic—there are so many words to describe the book. It made me cry so many times, it made me tense so many times, and it was heavy in a way that clings to your heart and perhaps your very being after you read it. It highlights so many realistic tragedies of war, and I think it's a book worth reading for that alone.

4.0

It’s hard to keep up a series at the same high quality all the way through. This one did a good job. Ended differently than I would’ve liked, however. In fact, I hated what became of Katniss in the end (before the epilogue) - felt like it defeated the point of the whole series. Also, I found the twist underwhelming. Rounding up to four foot storytelling, but the story itself, because of the ending, was a disappointment.
