Welcome to Litsy!

Before I read this & the previous one (TBOSAS), I wasn't sure we needed additional books about Snow & Haymitch. Have to say, I was completely wrong as yes, yes we did. Snow's villain origin story was interesting enough but this one about Haymitch Abernathy was just about perfect. It was also good to see Plutarch, Mags, Wiress, & Effie Trinket in their earlier roles.

Something to look forward to next year - the next Hunger Games movie.

This was the quickest I finished a book in a long time. Life keeps getting in the way of reading. Time off from work and a short vacation allowed me to get back to it.

I enjoyed Haymitch's back story. It was a fast paced read as most of the hunger games novels have been.

God this book was So Good. I love how Collins always writes with something to say. I laughed, I cried, I watched the tragedy unfold on the edge of my seat even though I knew how it would end.

I'm a little sad. It was odd and yet nice to see some familiar faces and names and while I enjoyed the book overall don't get me wrong, it starts on his birthday no less, to read about him getting reaped and then the ride to the Capitol and you know the general story because it's just like Katniss' in the sense that it's the same formula.

But I'm saddened because a lot more could have been explored and in a different way.
