A thrilling book. I enjoyed it more than the first one and hadn't seen the movie so didn't know the plot unlike in the first. I thought that the characters became more nuanced and the plot became more interesting and had more mysteries. One unique thing that I like that these books do is this idea of Katniss being a celebrity and having to present herself to the public in a certain way using fashion and other means to achieve certain ends and how this is explored. It's very well done.
I do have a few criticisms. Firstly, although the book was very exciting, I could see the ending coming, bar some of the details and that made it less effective. Secondly, there was a certain thing that Katniss was obsessed about for a large portion of the book that was a major driving force for her decisions yet I didn't find it that convincing or interesting.
However, it was still very enjoyable and the confident, distinct authorial voice in first person present tense made it a gripping read.

Ok, THIS one I couldn't put down. No wonder everyone who read these as they came out was so anxious for Mockingjay!
