I forgot how amazing these books are. They are such quick reads. The adventure has me on the edge of my seat. I like how a lot of the book dealt with the fallout of winning The Hunger Games - how Katniss feels, what her relationships are like.
The effect killing people has had on her. The games did feel a little rushed, but I was ok with it. I really wouldn't have liked a whole second book devoted to the games.
