I was excited to start this but I think the reason why it was so mid for me was because I watched the movie first and it was in my opinion surprisingly really accurate in comparison. Because of that, it led me to being a bit bored since I knew exactly what was happening. The only parts that peaked my interest were the small little events that were not in the movie like the way Lucy Gray actually won the games for example.
I also usually read first POV books so the way this was told just threw me off a little. Otherwise book was pretty good.
