I'm a tad confused about this one. I really, really wanted to like it. The premise is awesome, the characters are complex and three-dimensional, the writing is top-notch. But somehow it manages to be unbearably slow too. It makes me angry, because it's been my first Martin Amis, and I can't help but admit that he's one of the best authors I've encountered for some time, as in "ooooh, this paragraph is so literary, and this one, and this one". But he keeps using that talent to go over the same things over and over again, and you end up frustrated, because you already understand everybody's motives and you have for the last 200 pages, and you just want the story to freakin' move FORWARD. Martin Amis is an awesome writer in each and every isolated paragraph. But on the whole, it just didn't work for me.(less)

I haven't read any YA in ages. I had forgotten how nice it can be every once in a while. Forget about the sparkly vampires - it's comforting to take a trip to a magical land where falling in love is something that "happens" to people (I swear they make it sound like a viral infection or something), a long kiss is the most erotic thing a person can experience, and where drama is an important attribute and not something that makes the story look cheaper. This said, what's the big deal? I like Katniss and I'll be reading the rest of the trilogy. I just don't get what the phenomenon is about. Maybe it's just my personal mistrust of reality shows. By the way, the little parachutes that fall from the sky with stuff for the contenders? I don't care if they have a place in the narrative - it's still a deus ex machina . Those aren't supposed to be so visible, you know? Throw a coat of paint on that or something, before you send it to the publisher. Whatever. More, please.(less)

This book has multiple issues, but King is still the best when it comes to characterization. It's a shame, because that means the issues with this behemoth only become apparent when you've already read 800 pages - and you're way past the point of no return.(less)

Parts I and II weren't doing much for me, which was worrying - am I broken inside? I know it's good, why am I not feeling it? Have I really become that distrustful of Catholicism that I can't view it objectively anymore? Because that was so not the point of coming out as an atheist. But Part III was when the magic happened. It got me engaged and it got me thinking. Most of all it got me conflicted - I was sympathizing with the monks even though I didn't agree with them at all, which should have been weird because I knew that wasn't the author's view of the conflict. But the story was so beautifully developed I never felt like I was supposed to see it like that myself. It's a lovely piece of seamless, understated and very elegant storytelling. A very different kind of post-apocalyptic novel, but a great job nonetheless.(less)
