4.5

REREAD: After finishing the audiobook of the Hunger games this year, I decided to follow up and listen to Catching Fire as well. 
I was maybe 14 when I first read these books and even now, more than 10 years later, they still remain incredible. The writing style, the way Tatiana Maslaney read it, perfection.

I didn’t remember a lot from the books, only a few iconic lines

Spoiler

(“if it wasn’t for the baby” and “Katniss.. there is no district 12”)

, which still hit.
I can’t wait to listen to Mockingjay

I give this book 4,5 stars
