You have pitched this review perfectly. My family has not felt this kind of anticipation about a book release since…Harry #7. How fun it is to have a book to look forward to again.

I’m not a Gale/Katniss fan either so it was bugging me but really, it picked up no matter how much complaining about that pairing I did first.

I seriously had a mild heart attack when I snatched up the ARC we got in at the bookstore in which I work. Great job talking about it without giving much away. It was INCREDIBLE and I really tried to savor it. (I failed though, and read through it just as quickly as I did The Hunger Games.)

I saw they had copies of the ARC on ebay and I tried to bid on it but they’ve cancelled all the auctions I saw so far!!! I really want to read it!!! September is such a long way off but I guess good things come to those who wait, so they say!!!

If I was excited before, I’m ready to EXPLODE after this. I cannot wait for September to get here (I think this is ecplising the thought of turning 16).

Thank you for the spoiler-free review.

I completely agree with Monica. Chalk up another adult here who loved Hunger Games!
