• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

This book does what it wants to do really well, and it was good, but god I'm sad now. The whole time you know how it will end, because we know where the main character will end up...it makes it so heartbreaking. Also we are the capitol and I wonder how many people reading this accept that.
