I am re-reading this almost ten years after my original read through and I think this book especially out of the trilogy hits much harder as an adult. I felt so much more sympathy for Katniss now understanding that she was still a child and had developed so much trauma from the first two books. I also found myself increasingly annoyed at Gale and Peeta for not understanding that there were much bigger things going on for her than choosing which of them to love! The relevance of this book when it was first published and today shows how it is a modern classic and I cannot wait for more of Suzanne Collins masterpieces
