4.0

A strong sequel that doesn't suffer from middle book syndrome like so many other second books in a trilogy.

The story starts off slow and feels a little less exciting because we find ourselves back in a Hunger Games arena but the novelty of the concept has worn off a bit.

However the competitors are far more interesting and the growing tensions and revolutionary energy in the districts are compelling as well.
