THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS I'm surprised at how well this book stood up to rereading. Katniss didn't annoy me like she did the first (and possibly second) time I read the book. I found the book very suspenseful even though I knew everything that was going to happen. I had to take a LOT of bre...

Eventually I understood this would only lead us to more trouble. So I learned to hold my tongue and to turn my fea...
Those of you who have followed or friended me for a while will know that I used to regularly find different ways to tear this book to shreds.
