The Girl Who Was on Fire: Your Favorite Authors on Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games Trilogy by Leah Wilson

4.0

Ooooh..this was pretty fascinating. And also, fairly uneven. A collection of essays/reflections by assorted writers, a few really reached out and grabbed me, while others didn't really add much to my experience and understanding of the Hunger Games Trilogy.

A few that stood out: while I didn't really fall in love with Carrie Ryan's zombie trilogy, she made some critical points here in Panem et Circenses. Sarah Darer Littman's examination of the Politics of Mockingjay, while clearly written from a left-leaning perspective, was very compelling. Blythe Woolston and Sarah Rees Brennan's contributions also caught my attention.
