My review might contain spoilers so be warned‼️‼️
Things I liked about the book:
•Peeta/Haymitch/Katniss trio dynamic
The reason why I'm putting this here is that it sets up a big twist in the end of the book that creates a BIG emotional turmoil and development in the third book
•Katniss' Mom finally has character!!
Rather than Katniss telling what she does, her mom actually does the nursing!! Yehey!!!
*Gale
Although I dislike him, he actually has use here and sets up Katniss questioning her morality not just in this book but in the third book as well
Things I did not like:
•The "I'm not like any other girls" is really annoying. I don't want to say the pages but it is highlighted on 3 pages
•I think as tho as Katniss in this book has gotten dumb. She has gotten so reckless to the point of not thinking that the government won't punish her family
•The whole subplot for love was stupid to me. I know that Suzanne was forced to add it but still
•There was this whole chapter/s about the victors being friendly with one another and while it is the last time they can be friendly with one another...since alot of them will die, I just think it should not have been added if there wasn't even a single emotional turmoil
