Seems like I am a little late for this hype. 🙈 This one started off as a free giveaway by Audible and ended up having me buying the whole series because I couldn‘t listen to all of them in time. 🙈 It has been a long time that I have been this absorbed by a YA dystopian novel, even though the first one is quite similar to the Hunger Games. I still loved it.

I knew I would have to be in the right headspace to read this story and man I wasn‘t wrong. It‘s gut wrenching. Once again we are not to look away from the horrors of the capital. To the horrors inflicted upon the people of the districts. Collins once again does not disappoint with this story in the saga 💜📚

Happy "pictures in front of the Christmas tree" season to all who celebrate ?

I wasn't sure if I would like this dystopian romance, but I really did - so much so that I would consider continuing the series.

I had a fun time reading this. It was interesting and I finished it in one day. Yes it seemed a little more wooden than Katniss‘ story. I couldn‘t get behind Lenore as a character. And I really hated all the songs they kept quoting. The would quote the same song over and over. That seemed very unnecessary. But even with all that, I enjoyed the book and found it entertaining.

I‘m going to take a short break from this classic (one that‘s really feeling timely and that I should‘ve read a long time ago) to get to some Christmas-y rom coms before the season‘s gone. PS: I‘m really loving this book…and mildly terrified as I read it.

This book totally hit the spot for me. It's tragic and terrifying on a global scale while at the same time fiercely personal and quiet. I love how the story unfolds and the feeling of hope that accompanies the fear and uncertainty. The way I feel reading this one reminds me of how I felt reading Smith's There But For The, which isn't really anything like this one in plot or structure. #tob26 longlist

I enjoyed this short novella prequel to the Partials series, about one of the cyborg-esque people of the series title. I don‘t remember Heron having a POV in the books and she‘s a really intriguing character so it was fun to learn more about her past. She turns out to be pivotal to the history of her people because the humans designed and trained her to be too smart for them.
