It absolutely destroyed me. Haymitch lost everything, the plot twists regarding the other books and how even us as readers had fell for the propaganda the capitol spread about Haymitch’s games. Ampert deserved better, Beetee, Mags, Louella, Leonore, absolutely every single character deserved better (except for Snow, who is the most evil fictional character in a series, EVER). I’m speechless, I don’t know how to move on truthfully. It was absolutely PAINFUL to read and I still couldn’t put it down, you go in knowing everyone is gonna suffer and die but then it happens and it’s far worse than what you could possible have imagined. The author is a tragic genius.
