MOOD: ADVENTUROUS, TENSE, DARK, EMOTIONAL
STORY: Gripping adventure with a strong and complex heroine, exploring themes of survival, rebellion, and the human cost of war, with a dash of romance
FAVORITE QUOTE: "May the Odds Ever Be In Your Favor".
MY THOUGHTS:
I frequently ponder Suzanne Collins' mindset and the creative process behind envisioning a story set in a world where children are compelled to battle each other to the death.
It makes me reflect on my own moral judgment, considering how much I enjoyed every moment of reading it. Given the current state of society, I sometimes wonder if such a scenario may not be so far-fetched.
I devoured this book quickly and found it consistently engaging. I eagerly anticipated picking up the rest of the series to keep reading.
