5.0

A worthwhile prequel to the Hunger Games, which lets you see Snow’s start of darkness and just how much of a little shit he already was before developing into something much, much darker. I loved the complexity of his feelings towards Lucy Grey, and all of the plot lines and characters felt fully fleshed out. A beautiful, dark, twisted delight of a book.
