(reread) i loooved this book, but i have some complicated feelings about it. i found tons of grammar/wording mistakes which (not to be anal) really irked me. but the characters were incredibly complex, which was so enjoyable to read about from katniss’ cynical pov. overall this was a really fun read that kept me engaged the whole time! it makes pretty fascinating commentary on human nature.
