I really didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. It was very hard going at times. There were moments that I loved, like the part about Ikea's philosophies for business.(less)

It was interesting to hear the story of one of my favourite shows all all time. I'd have liked more of a synopsis of each episode, and more detail about the characters.(less)

Although I normally am not keen on reading about the very early parts of life in an autobiography, Rob made his sound really funny. Definitely worth a read and I look forward to reading the next part of his life story when he publishes it.(less)

I was really gripped, right until the very end. This book is on a much more epic scale compared to the first two books and I felt that the author managed the whole war concept very well focusing on the detail that mattered to the story.
Death is an interesting subject in the book. When particular characters died, their deaths were not dwelled upon particularly by Katniss. Some reviewers commented that some deaths were not significant enough. I thought that it kept in line with the way deaths are dealt with throughout the series - death is just something that happens.
I feel like another book might be a possibility - not focusing on Katniss though; her story is told. The are lots of things I'd like to know more about.
