DNF @25%

[pokes my head into the void of negative reviews saying how boring this was and whispers into the mic] i’m sorry i didn’t listen to you

this isn’t meant to be a redemption arc for snow, and it isn’t. just to clear that out. he’s still his stinky old self.

look it wasn’t that bad… i actually thought that it added to the hunger games world which i found interesting because of how it provided me with additional perspectives to the story we know and love. but that was the thing: my reasons for liking the certain aspects of this book that i did, was not because of this book in particular but more because of my emotional attachments to the original series

i did not have the care and patience for 89% of what was happening. maybe if i did i would enjoy dissecting coreLaNUS' character like i usually would but i just have way more diverse books i'd rather be reading. my free time to read with uni right now is limited and i don't feel like spending them with coreLaNUS

if you are going to read this read it for:
● tigress and snow’s platonic relationship (seriously.)
● original series easter eggs
● coreLaNUS
● not lucy
● not snow
● who the hell is arachne

that's it. it was fun being back in panem and i see why people both love and hate it.

p.s. i have the urge to rewatch and reread the hunger games on a yearly basis so i think i’m going to stick to those
