Good........when it worked
It works great for a few months but then it was very hit and miss. Ended up getting rid of it and using netflix and prime on the smart tv instead.

Meaty read but great characters
The language makes it quite hard going and it is a little slow paced at times however the mixture of feeling it stirs up for the characters is worth it especially the monster.

"It was one of the most intense ways of getting into the adult world and I saw it when I was really young. I couldn’t believe that there were stories that were so close to reality. It felt like that, it felt very real."

Meh. It kind of felt soul-less to me? (haha, pun intended)

It definitely had some incredible moments, moments where I could see the magic, but it didn't hold me and grip me like I wanted it to. Enjoyable, but not up to Disney's standards.

"I love poetry. Reading it. Writing it. And everything about Stevens's work comes through so personally. When you're reading it, it feels so natural. I'm not sure there is anything I can write here to either enhance or detract from the status of Wallace Stevens."

This started rather slow but once it kicked into gear, it was really, really good. It was a refreshingly different read and I got really into it. So much so that the ending has got me all riled up wanting to know what happens next?!?!

I really enjoyed it. It was a good adventurous romp. I really liked the main character because he was clearly a good guy and loved his family. It felt a bit short, but that's not a bad thing. It was a fun popcorn movie.

So, did this one live up to all the hype? Yes, in a way it did. Let's just say that it managed to hold its own and it was a very enjoyable read. Will it be one of my top ten of the year? No it won't be but I still really enjoyed it

It ends
This is the final book in the Hunger Games trilogy and I absolutely enjoyed it. It had a few turning points for Katniss and company as well as a thrilling conclusion to the drama. But, the ending could have had more going for it. Don't get me wrong, I was all for who she ends up with, but I felt it could have done more with it.
