Yes

Complicated
I adored diving into this world again.
We got to see how a lot of traditions and practices that are common in Katniss' hunger games came to be and how the capitol's perspective of the game have changed.
However, the focus on Snow was a bit boring for me.
Knowing what type of person he was going to end up being at the end of his life helped me persist to continue reading his story.
It's always interesting to watch someone go from "good" to "evil" and see how they rationalize it but this one just fell kinda flat. Specially in comparison to the series it's following.
