my only complaint is I would’ve like the Games portion of the book to be a little longer, but I understand why they were cut short. the ending was a little abrupt, too, but that’s not really a big deal. other than that I definitely liked this slightly more than the first book, even if a majority of it was build up to the Games themselves.

 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.
