 collins is able to raise the stakes and keep you invested in the characters and the plot and even in the new characters. the additions to the lore are fascinating and you want to know more. katniss’ grief and mental state is also interesting to explore but equally devastating.

“Katniss, there is no District Twelve.” 

mind-boggling and a very dashing book that followed the hunger games. suzanne collins wrote a well-thought plot that left clues since page one for the readers to piece together to create an amazing and cliffhanging ending. this is true literature! the only downer for me is its fast pacing and the lack of details in every depicted scenes.
