The only painful thing about this book was how much Katnis can’t figure out her feelings. Otherwise this was a great follow up to book one and doesn’t suffer much from the “middle book syndrome” most 2nd books in a trilogy do.

This was a re-read for me. The book was absolutely devastating. I forgot how heartbreaking the story is, particularly the first half of the book . It's a crazy experience to feel such sympathy for fictional characters.
