emmaroslan 's review for:
Sunrise on the Reaping
by Suzanne Collins
I just, I can't even comprehend what I just read.
I've been a little late to the party, as I've been doing a Hunger Games reading marathon. I started with the original trilogy, followed by Songbirds and Snakes (which I read for the first time). I'm really happy I did that as I've enjoyed reading and finding the little or big hints to the Katniss era while reading Sunrise.
On Instagram I saw a lot of people crying, and I thought that I wouldn't, as I don't cry that easily anymore with books.
Then I got to the part where Haymitch comes back to District 12 after winning. And it was bad. And it got worse when he arrived at his house. And I had hope that at least he would have his Lenore Dove. But even her is taken from him, in the worst way possible. Fuck dictators!!!!!
With this book Suzanne demonstrates such precision with her words, her talent to connect stories so spectecularly and beautifully. Everything makes sense. There are no loop holes in her story. Everything and everyone is accounted for.
And my oh my does she deliver at the end, especially at the end. The whole story is beautiful and gut wrenching, but for the big part of the book it doesn't feel like the Haymitch yet that we know from the later trilogy. I was curious how she would wrap that up. But everything makes sense. The geese. The "sweetheart". The loniless. I can't even describe further how beautiful and tragic that ending was.
The epilogue healed my heart a little but I will never forgive you for this, Suzanne!!!!!!
