See allThis book was able to get me back into reading. I couldn't put the book down at all. The ending was a bit predictable but that didn't take away from the book at all. The characters were enjoyable and I liked being able to see each persons perspective and how they felt about the events happening. The main characters were able to show growth and change through-out the book. It flowed well too. Overall I would recommend the book to anyone who wants to get back into reading or anyone who wants an introduction to mystery and thriller with a touch of romance!
The book had a lot to live up to (expectation-wise). I grew up watching the franchise and I finally decided to jump into reading the book. It was worth every second. Katniss is much more enjoyable in the book then in the movie. It was easy to root for her. You get to know Katniss better in the book. The relationship between Peeta and Katniss was also enjoyable to watch unfold. Even if Katniss was too dense to realize that Peeta truly does have feelings for her. I would most definitely recommend.
Reading this was a journey. Not because the book is bad but because it was just difficult to enjoy reading something with such an unlikable main character.
I will admit there were parts where I felt bad for Coriolanus and then I remembered what he did to Finnick and my tear ducts became dry. And I think that's what I don't like about this book. How unnecessary it is. I already knew Coriolanus Snow was a terrible person. And I feel like characters such as Sejanus were just added to add to that point. They built up their friendship for his to die due to Coriolanus' selfishness.
The whole book just felt empty to me.
The whole time I'm reading I just knew Sejanus and Lucy Grey wouldn't make it. And that made me so fucking sad.
The fact that Lucy Grey's story and Hunger Game was hidden and never heard of again makes me so fucking sad. Lucy Grey was someone who was kind and strong, who beat the odds and deserved a happy ending. We will never know if she got a happy ending. Also, I never once believed that Snow actually loved Lucy Grey. It felt like he loved the attention and fame he got by being associated with her.
Overall, this book made me extremely depressed and I regret reading it.
Going into this book after having already seen the movie, I was expecting something closer to that. I was extremely surprised to see that it surpassed any expectation I had.
The book follows someone interviewing many people of many countries as they tell their stories of what they faced during the ‘zombie war'. I found that the book and its situations seemed a little too realistic. I could see America acting exactly as they did in the book. This isn't a bad thing but more shocking and enjoyable. It felt more real, like this actually happened.
Overall, the writing was great and the format of the book was surprisingly enjoyable. I would recommend this look over the movie. You don't need to be a horror fan to enjoy the book either.
While the Twilight franchise isn't perfect, I found myself deeply enjoying each and every moment I had with it. The writing isn't the greatest but it doesn't have to be. You can practically feel the love Bella and Edward have for each other without needing extravagant words depicting it.
The subtle transformation Bella has when she's a vampire is the most well written thing. No more blushing or feeling embarrassed or being extremely shy. Bella was now outgoing and more herself than anything.
This series will always be so precious to me and this was the perfect ending.
I will say that I didn't particularly enjoy Jacob's section. He quickly became a least favorite character for me.
