I know right? I hope it will be as scathing and genius as I think it could be. Also, Haymitch!!!!❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥

I was such a Hunger Games stan in my adolescence, and I 100% concur Lindsey! 🤍
Hunger Games books were released exactly during the time when I wasn’t reading anything: You are all so excited that I think I really need to pick up the series, hopefully I’ll be done in time to fully experience the joy of this release 😊

IKR? Haymitch origins. ❤️🔥 I'm a bit nervous too, we need this to do justice.

Thanks so much PP! It was my whole personality in my youth for a while 🤭

Sara love, you're so lucky that get to read it for the first time ever! I'll be very invested and interested in your thoughts. I'm not sure if you've seen the movies, but imo, the books are better. 🏹💜

I know you would be so anticipatory about this too Darla, my fellow Hunger Games enthusiast! Isn't this such a lil treat for us? Cheers. 🥂

Oh len, that is so good, I'm envious! I wish I could read the series for the first time! Have you seen the movies or would you be going in without much knowledge? I loved the books in my adolescence. I will definitely be watching out for your thoughts if you get to it. Hope you love it! 💜
I'm also very curious to see how this goes. I'll await my friends' reviews and then take a call. Hope it lives up to your expectations, dear Esta! ❤️

Zainab my stunning girl, how amazing was The Hunger Games? Peeta Mellark, the OG book bf haha. Hope this one is just as brilliant. 🤞💗💗

That sounds like a wise idea my dearest Rosh! I hope it lives up too, I was so enthralled by the original series. Thanks so much. 🤞🥰 (Uggghh now I have to wait for 2025)

Yes Liepa! I bet young Slaymitch is such a cinnamon roll. And you need to be in the upcoming movie 💯

Thanks Meredith! Sadly it's a year-long wait 🥲 ❤️🩹

i’ve actually only seen the third movie. 😂 i saw it in the theater with my friends without having even watched the first two. i pretended i had because i wanted to hang out and go. i know, not the best choice but teen me was a people pleaser… anyway, i have forgotten it and don’t remember anything so i’d be going in blank regardless. i don’t remember who was who and what happened. obviously i didn’t even know what was happening.

Teen me was a people pleaser too, so can relate! Blank slate is awesome. I'll be intrigued to know your thoughts, especially since you can read it objectively without any nostalgic rose-coloured glasses biases (like I have). 😁

Haha, I can see what you mean. Perhaps I didn't use enough caps or exclamation marks, but trust me I am freaking out too!!!

When you can't tell if you're reading a Suzanne Collins book or reading the news 🥺
I'm so excited for this one and at the same time, I can see how screwed up it is our world is broken in this way and Suzanne Collins's books of a dystopian world are so close to ours.

100% Akankshya ml. When the Hunger Games arena is less brutal than the current reality in a few countries. 🥺 I'm certain Suzanne is gonna ace this one.
Nora wrote: "This prequel sounds fantastic! I’m curious to hear the author’s thoughts as well."
She usually does such a great job. Glad you're looking forward to it as well Nora and happy reading! 🤍

I hear you. Panem can be intense. I'll let you know if it's worth braving Panem again, Zaynab ml! 🥰

If Slaymitch enters the arena, the arena better start running!

I know right? I just finished reading The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, and I'm so ready for Slaymitch to give the finger to the Capitol and Snow.
Looking forward to reading this as Haymitch is definitely my favorite character in The Hunger Games.

Likewise Cheryl. Not long now... countdown is on!

Less than a WEEK?! ⏳ I'm so nervous and excited and anxious all at once. Peak Haymitch stan, lol
Sounds like this one might be interesting, Esta. Especially if it is a commentary on the current state of the world. Happy Reading 📖
