oh man this was a true 5/10 mid rating. i do love a good continuation of the hunger games lore but everything past the main 3 books reads so fanfictioney. i was just not interested or invested in anyone, the writing was ass and i think haymitch lacked a lot of depth. there was a lot of potential for his story esp during the games and i think it just came off so... BORING i cant believe this same woman wrote the hunger games trilogy and the gregor the overlander series bc those were so peak and this was... EXTREMELY LACKING. i had the same qualm with tbosas- fanfiction ahh celebrity guest appearances by previously established characters that feels like PANDERING! the only part that i really liked was literally the 2 pages of the epilogue bc it was directly correlated to what was already written in the TRILOGY and im a sucker for healing and coping with losing a loved one.

this book took me forever to finish but when i actually started reading it was hard to put down. really enjoyed how the two stories mirrored each other. it was excellent storytelling and a cute idea. i dont feel like writing a review but this was a worthwhile read for sure. lowkey am a wimp bc reading about murders at night creeps me out

call me biased but that was a 5/5. i had the privilege of reading this all the way through pretty much in one sitting and woah my goodness. so many tears it was so gripping and engaging tbh i liked how they spent so much time on the lam not knowing wtf to do with finding the horcruxes bc bruh IT IS REALISTIC! i loved everything about this book the plot progression was incredible there were such amazing moments pretty consistently throughout i loved their relationship mending w kreacher and bro i genuinely lost it when dobby died even tho i knew he would.... and neville. bro he is the bravest most heroic little boy he is the star of the entire series... him and dobby i think. just incredible writing she really ended it off on a bang just wow

wow i feel like fucking shit after finishing this. i cant believe i remember this being my favorite book out of the whole series the last time i read it. what a horrible state of mind i was in to be able to say that bruh. the ending hit me so incredibly hard that the rest of the book is like nothing which i dont really like. i feel numb now and incredibly dreadful and hopeless and scared and it is so wonderful how rowling instills these emotions through her writing. wow that was a horrific way to end she is truly fucked up in the head but beautifully so

this book made me go "oohh....." at every iteration of napolean's dictatorship bro what a powerful story and how extremely reflective of our modern day... i think the most poignant part was the rewriting of history and how the animals werent intelligent enough to notice and those who were didnt do anything bc it was no use... wow wow wow. much better than 1984 and in way less words 👏👏👏
