Really good book, as was the first one. The plot in this book was especially well devised, and the creativity and connectedness of the story definitely surpasses the first novel. This book was a fun read (if incredibly emotional and traumatic) and met my expectations! However, the writing style is a bit ”young”, which can make it a bit boring/unenjoyable at times (not significantly).

I enjoyed the book but the original will always be my favourite. I wish the actual games were longer as the beginning seemed too long and stretched out for me. I liked how each chapter held a wedge of the arena though as it made the pace quicker and flow nicely. There was a lot more foreshadowing in this book than there was the original I feel and I enjoyed reading that and comparing it future events in the third. It’s slightly annoying how oblivious Katniss can be to the wider perception of the rebellion and how focused she is on Peeta but I think her selfishness is an essential part of her character and it makes her stand out from other protagonists. I prefer the books to the movies including the portrayal of the characters but especially Finnick’s and his and Katniss’ relationship - he and their friendship has many more layers and much more depth than is shown in the film. I wish they hadn’t missed the intricacy of each ally having their own given knowledge from the rebel group and the explanation of the plan and it’s origins. Also, Haymitch as always is my favourite although he was a little irritating at the end when he seemed annoyed with Katniss before she even spoke to them. Although this could just be Katniss’ perspective and his annoyance had nothing to do with her. I dislike the ending with Gale and how Katniss seemingly returns to her relationship with Gale simply because he is hurt again. From previous re-reads, I think I will enjoy the third book the least but I’m excited to re-read that too.
