honestly, surprisingly bad considering how everyone hypes this up to me. i genuinely think that this book was never intended to be marketed towards a younger audience (nor should it have ever been) but due to the poor quality of writing, it was. i know it is a YA but i have read plenty others and none this bad. this is full of grammatical errors and has absolutely no style to it. I do not think this is appropriate at all for <13 to be reading. plus i think katniss is one of the worst characters ever to follow. i do not like her and find her actions are always backhanded or unnecessarily cruel.
