These books aren't well written I can tell that from the reading the first one.
Collins is an overrated hack who ripped off her plot from Battle Royale and The Running Man. She uses Twilight quality metaphors like "My tears tasted salty, like the soup". Idiotic villains, one character monologues about killing Rue before she is about to shiv Katniss. Why?!? How did she even know Katniss and Rue were working together?!? Why did Thresh kill her and then spare Katniss because of this?! He didn't care about Rue, if he did he would have been teaming up with her, not that it matters since it was Katniss's fault she died! What a horrendous and poorly written scene. That ending is horrible too. Why did the capital try to revoke the rule change in order to get a more exciting finish? They knew the two were in love, wtf did they think was gonna happen, of course they were going to try to kill each other if they couldn't be together, have they never read Romeo and Juliet? Why did they even care so much that they attempted suicide anyway, I'm not making the connection between that and stirring a rebellion. This book is extraordinarily frustratingly idiotic...
