I was not expecting to like this as much as I did. I grew up with the Hunger Games and really thought Mockongjay was messy and not clearly thought out. I avoided this, thinking Collins had lost her touch. She certainly has not. This book follows Snow before his presidency, as a young high school senior as he participates in the Hunger Games as a mentor and discovers his personal limits and what lines he is willing to cross for his own personal power.

In eerste instantie vond ik het boek erg langdradig (19 uur voor een audio boek), maar toen eenmaal de Hongerspelen bezig waren werd het voor mij lastiger om het boek stop te zetten! Dit boek laat je inzien hoe Snow is geworden zoals hij is in de boekenreeks met Katniss. Vooral aan het einde komt dit heel goed naar voren. In het boek krijg je echt de character arc mee van Snow. Zeker een aanrader! Het kan alleen zijn dat je even door een zure appel moet bijten om de smaak te pakken te krijgen.

Although I didn’t enjoy it as much as the original trilogy, I adore the hunger games universe and learning more about the earlier games and how Snow became who we know him to be. I struggle reading books when I dislike the main character but I was too invested in the plot to stop!
