You can say what you want about this book, snow or even the hunger games world over all, but we can all agree that "Snow lands on top" is such a cool phrase to have for your family name!

I like it, it's a bit slow sometimes and it isn't as action-y as the hunger games can be because we see the games from someone who is safe-point of view. I did like where this story went after the games and I like the ending and how we are never really meant to be sympathizing for Snow event though he as the main character time and time again tries to tell us his thought process and how he's actually doing the right thing even though we know that he is absolutely f-cked in the head.

I liked it! Not love it and i didn't fly though it like I did with the OG trilogy but.. I like it! :)
