I am again overwhelmed by how good these books are
I've just finished a reread of the books and it's just incredible how good they are. It's my third or fourth reread since the first time maybe 10 years ago and I am still hooked every second of it. And the emotional aspect of it crushed me yet again, so much that I actually had to skip a few moments, like when Buttercup turns up in Katniss' house looking for Prim at the very end. The writing style pulls you in so perfectly, and the story is so devastating and real. I thought the movies were great too, but they can't capture the insanity of the books. And I feel like the commercialised atmosphere around the movies made a lot of people underestimate/underrate the books.
