I finished and I enjoyed it. It moves quickly and there is a lot to absorb, often in just a few short sentences.

I felt like we were able to get to know the other tributes a bit more. However, there are 48 of them, so obviously you just get to know a few. There are a lot of characters that we already know from previous books.

Of course the end of the book is tragic, but it's a good ending to the series. The movie is going to be amazing.

I finished it and loved it. Poor Haymitch---and a lot of timely messages in this book about how government can easily manipulate the truth to suit their own purposes and that what is being sold as "historical fact" may not necessarily be so. And about how authoritarian regimes can easily squash any dissent.

And it was nice to see some cameos of the parents of our Hunger Games favorites....
