Complicated
Haymitch's story is every bit as intoxicating as reading the Hunger Games for the first time. Urgent, rebellious and fearless, he refuses to go down without a fight. The focus on the undercurrent uniting the districts offers a great reminder of who the real enemy is. I absolutely devoured this book.
Favourite quotes:
"Don't let them paint their posters with your blood."
"Fire is catching, she’d say, but if this one burns down the arena, I say good riddance."
"You were capable of imagining a different future. And maybe it won’t be realized today, maybe not in our lifetime. Maybe it will take generations. We’re all part of a continuum. Does that make it pointless?"
"With that, she condemns me to life."
