This book caught me so off guard. When I started it I thought it was decent. Nothing too special and I very much preferred the first two. 
I don't quite know when that started to change but there is something amazing about a strong-willed, badass,  sassy fmc that worked so well in this book and I grew to love it.  
I saw someone describe Famine as a "cinnamon roll" and I thought that was a joke until about 100ish pages from the end when I started sobbing. 
Do not mistake me, this book is violent and really questions your morality, especially when it comes to the mmc BUT there is a story of redemption to be found in everyone of you look hard enough and I think that is what this author is good at writing.
