    Reread these a few years ago and was genuinely surprised by how hard the ending hit me, I had tears down my back somehow??
  • @maysanchez4291
    i read them as they came out and reread them during the pandemic and was utterly happy that they were as good as i remembered maybe even better bc truly there so much i know about the world now that made it more real and heartbreaking. truly amazing books

    I just want to say that your obs about the capitol citizens being ok with children murder and being terrified with the death of a unborn baby is on point. It's so frustrating when a dystrophy feels just like our reality..
  • 05:00 I think it's more the lack of internal monologue. Jennifer Lawrence played true to the book that Katniss keeps everything internal most of the time.

    I would've sworn for my life that Seneca Crane was mentioned in the first book and lost my life in that bet. I'm honestly shocked he's not even mentioned until the second book

    I'm rereading these rn! I'm almost done with Catching Fire. I really want to read the prequel, since the movie just came out. I was super busy when it released a few years ago, but now I'm super nostalgic for some reason about these! My books even still have my name written in the fronts of them because I would bring them to 5th and 6th grade. I'm 22 now. 😭😭😭 I saw how different I wrote my name and I started sobbing. I'm glad you started reading them!

    I re-read the series a few months ago for the first time in maybe a decade, and it's crazy how good they still are as an adult. I too am a Katniss x Peeta stan and also sobbed while re-reading Mockingjay 😭 I still need to read the Ballad prequel, and now another prequel set around the second quarter quell was just announced which I'm SO excited for! Hunger Games fans are getting fed (no pun intended) all these years later 🙌

    Seeing this made me want to re-read the trilogy again 😁

    this video gave me such a nice sense of nostalgia for THG ever since finishing the series in high school/early college days! obviously i feel like there's a lot i don't remember but would still enjoy to this day. it was very cool to hear your unbiased perspective!
  • @mawaomar9530
    im so excited for this lol bc so many peope watch the movies (its no problem ) but the movies miss out so many thingss
  • I read these books a little bit before I found out about the first movie coming out. November/December 2011. I had no spoilers for the trilogy, so imagine finishing Mockingjay just as I'm supposed to go the a Christmas party at my sister's new husband's family. Like how can I act like I'm happy about Christmas when i literally just finished Mockingjay less than an hour ago 😭😭😭

    NINA I was so so glad to watch this!! I loved this book series and I LOVED BSBAD you both have to read it 🥰 the movie was amazing as well. I agree that being able to be inside the mind of Katniss definitely adds a peice that is missing from the movies, but honestly the movies are masterpieces imo so I wouldn’t change a thing 😂 so so great to hear your thoughts ❤️

    1. i loved this video! 2. if finding out you had a wife is what pushed me to hit subscribe, can you blame me? i’m a simple lesbian; i see women loving women, i click.
  • @eileen_3947
    I read these in middle school, and then again recently, but I never made the connection on the Capitols opinion on expecting mothers vs mothers with children! Definitely art reflecting life there
