Hardback

YA
A friend lent me this to read - it's a prequel to the Hunger Games trilogy.
It is very separate from the other novels - it takes place way before, during the 10th annual Hunger Games.
Some lines to consider before jumping into the story. It is a story of ambition, control, want, appearances, and power.
The main character is Coriolanus Snow. Yes, future President Snow. It's actually been so long since I read the trilogy that I wasn't sure until I looked it up whether this was the same character, or an ancestor.
But I was rooting for him almost the while time.
There is a moment at the end that didn't feel right to me, but overall this was an enjoyable, readable book. And a quick read: I started it Thursday evening, and finished it Friday night - and I went to work during the day on Friday!
(For the record - that means that I liked this one, and the first book in the trilogy. I dont actually like the second or third books!)
