Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins
5.0
dark sad fast-paced

Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

It amazes me how Suzanne managed to tie in everything so well. Every few chapters there’d be little lore bombs connecting to the earlier books. 

To say I’m wrecked after reading this is an understatement. I feel empty. I had just about dried my tears when that damn epilogue finished me right off. 

To think that all this merely happened because Snow couldn’t get over his damn one year situationship. Crazy. 

Once again, this book shines light on how easy it is for propaganda to be spread, reality to be altered and the public to be manipulated. Now, more than ever, it is important to recognise this and educate ourselves, to not take everything at face value, but to be critical and question things.
